Superbly restored and lavishly decorated with convenience and comfort in mind, the
17th-century Manor House is at the heart of the Eaton Manor Estate in nearly an
acre of private, gently rolling gardens, perfect for a game of cricket or an afternoon
drink on the lawn. The Eaton Brook flows at the bottom of the garden, making it
a lovely spot for wildlife watching or perhaps fishing from the stepping stones
during the summer months. The house itself is no less lovely than the grounds, combining
a wealth of interesting historic features such as timber framed walls, leaded windows
and original flagstones with modern luxuries and a well-equipped kitchen for adventurous
cooks. The brook is now fenced to keep our youngest guests safe.
The Manor House Accommodation
The Manor House has six main bedrooms plus the snug, each individually decorated
to preserve the warmth and character of the rooms. Downstairs is the Master Bedroom,
with a stunning 6' double bed and en-suite bathroom; as well as the Garden Room
with twin/double bed with ensuite shower room with spectacular French windows with
glorious views down to the brook. On the lower ground floor is a further double/twin
bedroom with ensuite shower room, which opens out directly into the garden.
Upstairs is the Terracotta Room, featuring exposed ceiling beams, original leaded
windows and a grand Queen Anne-style mahogany four poster bed for added luxury.
The newly refurbished Blue Room has three single beds or a double and a single with
dramatic views to the Wenlock Edge, while the Green Room has rustic exposed wall
and ceiling beams, a twin/double bed and beautiful views to the garden leading to
the Snug which has single bed and is accessed through the Green Room, making these
two rooms particularly suitable for families.
The rest of the house is well-appointed with plenty of room for guests to spread
out. The entrance is via the south-west facing conservatory with views of the Wenlock
Edge, which leads to the tiled hall and then the dining room featuring an a huge
oak table seating 18 - ideal for meals with the whole family.
The new kitchen complete with granite worktops has everything you need to cook up
a feast, including a dishwasher, larder fridge, freezer, microwave, range cooker
with two ovens and a washer dryer. Across the hall from the dining room is the drawing
room, a warm and welcoming room complete with original beams and a Victorian range
which was discovered bricked into the wall. Of course, there are plenty of sofas
as well as a 42" freeview television, DVD player, many books and some board games
for entertaining evenings.
The Manor House has four bathrooms; the main bathroom on the first floor with bath,
shower, sink and wash stand, 2 ensuite shower rooms, and an en-suite bathroom to
the ground floor master bedroom.
