It has been an adequate temporary abode, it has.

Ahhhhhh this is so pretty. I love that area of England!

[nanila]

It did feel like living in a postcard!

Wow, stunnnning!

[nanila]

It's rather beautiful, and less than a 40 minute drive down the road from us.

Gorgeous honey coloured stone that reminds me of Bath.

Is that Sandstone?

[nanila]

It's limestone, I think.

A lovely place in a lovely setting.

[nanila]

Yes. We had been warned about incursions from sheep and cows so were mildly disappointed that they stayed peacefully corralled in neighbouring fields. 🐮 🐑

Nice!

[nanila]

It was very much about the views from those windows, this place!

That looks like a fantastic place to spend a holiday.

It was lovely. The part of the house that you can see in the photo is all one big room. We spent most of our time in there reading and playing games.

But does it have WiFi? =:o}

[nanila]

Nope. And the mobile signal was pretty dire too.

Oh wow! That is so awesome!

[nanila]

It is rather splendid. Not big, unlike the mansion it was built to accompany (which burnt down in 1645).

What a beautiful building!

There's a West Banqueting House as well, but having seen them both, this is the pick of the two in terms of its situation on the estate.
