This blend of styles continues inside, creating a space at once homely and enchanting – sparkling stained glass, stately columns and heraldic ornaments abound. For the summer there is a charming courtyard, filled with plants; and for the winter a cosy lounge with a roaring fire. Rooms are equally characterful, combining Gothic detailed furniture with extravagant floral fabrics and wallpaper.
