Principal Rooms
Saloon The Saloon is 60 feet high, and has 22 doors. The brass ventilator in the centre of the room was originally for heating - much appreciated by Victorian ladies in long skirts emerging from a cold session in the dining room. In Edwardian times there was a pianola in this room for dancing. Portraits are of family.
Dining Room The table can be extended for larger parties. Whenever possible we use our own produce - game and salmon from the Estate and fruit from the Gardens.
