Jacobean Manor

The property is a Grade I listed Jacobean Manor just inside Wales, near Chester, and about a mile from an attractive market town. The house consists of an oak panelled central hall, complete with family portraits, for general entertaining with a drawing-room and dining-room directly off of it. There are four double bedrooms and four bathrooms on the first floor with a further three double bedrooms with two bathrooms on the second floor to accommodate up to a total of 14 guests. The house sits at the end of a long private drive, just outside a market town that is 1 mile away. It is surrounded by its own land to ensure complete privacy. Jacobean Manor is very much a family house providing guests with a unique type of weekend in unusual historic surroundings and complete privacy. The house contains seven large bedrooms, all of which have their own adjoining en suite bathrooms. A feature of the top floor is the large entertainment area in the centre of the floor below the original oak roof beams. There is also a lift available to the first floor. All bedrooms are finished to a high and exacting standard. There are Italian Frette linen, duck feather pillows & duvets as well as bathroom products for your comfort. Our kitchen is located beyond the Dining Room and is fully-equipped with an oil-fired Aga and a Rangemaster electric cooker. Guests have the option of using our kitchen to prepare all their own meals, including breakfast. The manor is approached down a tree-lined drive and is surrounded by some 100 acres of land belonging to the Estate to provide complete privacy. There are 3 acres of garden within the house's surrounding stone wall, while beyond the Llettai, there is a Victorian walled garden, also facing south, with a central lawn. Beyond that is a 17th century barn likely to be converted into a further family house in due course. The land around the house leads down to the River Alyn which is also ideal for displaying birds of prey, one of the outside activities that can be arranged here. We can also arrange clay pigeon shooting and will provide all the equipment if required. This has become an increasingly popular activity for our guests. For larger groups of up to 18 there is also a cottage within the grounds that is available for hire in conjunction with the main house. Please enquire.
