The Great Hall is the centrepiece of the house and is the first room to be entered through the front door. With its Italian pink walls and fine 18th century ceiling plasterwork this room has welcomed many guests during its history.
Beyond the Great Hall is the Saloon resplendent with chandeliers, polished oak floorboards and far reaching vistas. Left of the Great Hall is the Chinese Room with 300 year old hand-painted wallpaper. To the right is the formal Dining Room displaying many female portraits.
Left of the Saloon is the Library complete with secret door opening into the Hall from which the ornate cantilever staircase ascends. Right of the Saloon is Nancy Lancaster’s Yellow Drawing Room. The final room to be seen is the Ballroom, a Victorian extension, with views over the West Terrace and the lake beyond.
