The extensive ground floor has many rooms perfect for families and friends holidaying together, an elegant Drawing Room with its grand piano, two Kitchens, formal Dining Room, Games Room, and Snug.
In a spectacular setting, just above the beach, a dreamy holiday home for everyone who comes.
The accommodation comprises:
4 double rooms, 5 twin rooms, 3 single rooms, with 8 bathrooms, 2 en suite Drawing room, Games room, Snug, Office, Dining room, 2 Kitchens, and extensive gardens.
In 2012 the house became a film set when Richard Curtis, his family and crew turned up for the summer to film the romantic comedy About Time……. Here is the trailer for the film, which captures atmosphere of the house so perfectly.
