Lavethan

A blissfully peaceful, broad, oak lined drive descends into a secret valley, leading to the courtyard and easterly aspect of this family manor house. Listed in the Domesday Book, Lavethan is a superb Grade II* house dating from the 15th century and was partly re-modelled in 1650.

The views of the valley from the dining room overlook grand 17th century oaks in the Park field sloping to the river. The 35 acres surrounding the house include a tranquil woodland water garden with Celtic crosses, a walled garden with a profusion of roses around the swimming pool and, in the valley, a river with salmon ladder. It is all breathtakingly beautiful.

Guests are invited to spend time in their own private panelled sitting room with piano and fire in winter. Comfort is also the keyword in the guest accommodation, with six foot wide double beds and two bathrooms boasting huge Edwardian bath tubs.
