On your arrival (4pm onwards or earlier by arrangement), you are welcome to make tea or coffee and biscuits either in your room or, on summer afternoons, in a quiet corner of our garden ...or in our cosy drawing room with its welcoming log fire on colder days.

Our guest bedrooms have top-of-the-range, king-size beds - either double (zip ’n’ link) or twin - with en-suite loo and luxury shower room. 
The house is fully centrally heated and each bedroom is equipped with flat-screen LCD TV and DVD player, broadband wireless internet connection, radio alarm clock, tea/coffee-making facilities with biscuits, hair drier, bathrobes, shaver point (with heated mirrors so you can always see what you’re doing!), a selection of books, magazines, DVDs and other homely touches to make your stay as luxuriously enjoyable as possible. 

We regret that smoking is not permitted anywhere in the house. 

Children over 12 years old are welcome at the normal tariff. 
Children younger than 12 years old by prior arrangement.

Dogs are also welcome by prior arrangement (our cats will make themselves scarce).

Evening Meals 
Apart from the gastronomic delights of the Michelin-starred restaurant, The Harrow, (almost literally on the doorstep of The White House), there are a number of good pubs/restaurants in the area to which, if you prefer not to drink/drive, we can arrange transport to and from (see Tariffs & Reservations). 

Alternatively, by prior arrangement, we can provide a 2-course or 3-course supper ‘en famille’ or privately – whichever you prefer (see Tariffs & Reservations).

We are not licensed to sell alcohol but guests are welcome to bring their own drinks if required or to choose from a selection of non-alcoholic drinks.
