Just 20 minutes from Cambridge, this historic gem was built in the 1800s and has a story to tell.

Step into the grand monochrome entrance hall and discover the versatile Study and Drawing Room—perfect for transforming into your dream spaces. The Study, with its timeless atmosphere, is ideal for your ceremony, accommodating up to 100 guests. The heart of your celebration awaits in the stunning Garden Room. With dramatic windows framing the scenic grounds, a sparkling checkerboard dancefloor, plush velvet wingback chairs, and chandeliers adorned with metallic tassels, this room blends contemporary style with the manor’s historic charm. It’s an unforgettable space where you and your loved ones can dance the night away. Invite your guests to spill out onto the terrace or explore the grounds, offering a perfect backdrop for those cherished wedding photos. With 13 luxurious rooms, including the Honeymoon Suite. Indulge in striking copper baths, grand carved fireplaces, and plush king-sized beds that create the ultimate romantic retreat. Step into a world of timeless beauty and romance.
