    Tips

    June 7, 2018

    The estate was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, but the earliest part of the estate is the Norman Great Tower, built in the late 11th or early 12th century. The tower is all that remains of the original fortified manor on his site.
    Most families will head for the Great Tower, and it is certainly well worth a climb to the top (mind your head on low beams!) and the views from the top of the tower are simply wonderful. The setting is superb, looking out across a secluded green valley.
