With
its monastic origins, the hall is a haven of tranquility,
beautiful formal gardens in the spring, and log fires in
winter. The hall is of Tudor origin, although there has
been a house on the site since Roman times.
Regarded
as one of Lincolnshire's best kept secrets, the hall is certainly one of England's most romantic settings,
with its en suite accommodation including the four-poster
honeymoon suite.
The hall possesses a wedding licence for the conducting of civil
marriages in the intimate great hall, and caters for receptions
in the dining room, or, depending on numbers, in a marquee
on the lawns.
Blessings
can be carried out in the little medieval Church of St Michaels
close to the hall.
The
hall may be hired for small conferences, meetings and "away
days", where integrity is at a premium. Furnished with
antiques and tapestries, its secluded setting provides total
privacy. Exclusive functions, private dinner parties, and
shooting parties are also welcome.
The
hall is surrounded by excellent country pubs and small restaurants
within a matter of minutes easy drive: French, Italian,
traditional pub fare, and Indian tastes all catered for.
Dinner is available in the house by appointment, but four
persons or more are required.
The
location also offers a wealth of advertising photo opportunities,
whilst very successful corporate "open days" have
been organised.
The hall is also host to a series of classical concerts held
at different times of the year. The music is made even more
wonderful by the ambience of this unique old country manor,
with its Tudor architecture, log fires and atmospheric great
hall. |
