Our countryside location has many advantages including stunning views and a peaceful environment. It also means that we see more than our fair share of the local wildlife; foxes are plentiful, owls are occasional visitors and prize plants are often chomped away by hungry deer.
This small menagerie has recently been augmented by a proud male pheasant who struts around the grounds like the Lord of the Manor. Christened Seymour by the staff, he is obviously very pleased with himself and with his new home and has taken to declaring his joy with a piercing cry that reverberates around the gardens. Unfortunately, for our guests, his performance does start early, often around dawn.
If you are coming to stay and are a light sleeper or prefer to lay in late, we recommend ear plugs or the kind of patience that requires you gritting your teeth!
