Dunford House is located in West Sussux and was built around 1852. It is a Victorian villa-style Grade II Listed building with additional outbuildings set in approximately 53.84 acres. The main house comprises 19 en-suite bedrooms, extending to approximately 11,300 sq ft, with a modern single level extension providing a further 5 en-suite bedrooms within 1,165 sq ft. The property also contains a 3 bedroom bungalow, extending to approximately 1,500 sq ft, previously used as a manager’s house. If that wasn’t enough, there is also a coach house provides a further six bedrooms, extending to approximately 4,000 sq ft. WHOA that’s a lot of bedrooms! I found this glorious home through Shoot Factory as a location home but I also found it looking very empty and listed on Savills, for £3,000,000.

Meikle Wartle Manor is a 12th century castle located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is stunning inside and out, with some questionable decor but not bad all around. It features 8 bedrooms (4 with ensuites), a walled garden and is available as a holiday let here. I’d love to get my hands on this one to decorate to my heart’s content. 🙂

Shaw House is a magnificent Grade II-listed manor built in the early 18^th century and designed in the classical style. It is set within six acres of beautifully curated grounds just east of Bradford-on-Avon and the historic city of Bath. Accommodation exceeds 9,500 sq ft with nine bedrooms and a beautiful ground floor level that interacts wonderfully with the surrounding terraces and sections of private garden. The slightly raised ground level opens to a spectacular entrance hall with hardwood parquet flooring and a fireplace with a bolection moulded surround. Ahead lies a morning room that links the dual aspect dining room on one side and the kitchen on the other. This northern section of the plan also houses a boot room, pantry and cloakroom. Substantial cellars have been repurposed as a laundry room and offer versatile storage. Open fireplaces are present in all the principal rooms on this level. To the left of the central hall are stairs down to a drawing room, set within a 19^th century, two-storey wing of the house. A wide, sweeping staircase ascends from the hall to the bedrooms, dressing rooms and five bathrooms that are distributed across the first and second floors and on intermediate levels at the northern and southern ends of the plan.

YES. This home is SPECTACULAR. I’d be tempted to ask the sellers to sell the furnishings with it. For sale via Inigo.

Marigold Manor – an absolute stunner available as a location home via JJ Media.

Glandyfi Castle – A magnificent and stunningly restored Regency/Gothic Castle built in the early 19th Century, the castle stands high on a beautifully wooded hillside from where it enjoys far reaching views across the glorious Dovey Estuary to the Mountains of Snowdonia National Park (northwest Wales). The Castle, built of local stone and slate with mullion windows, square, round and octagonal towers and impressive chimneys, has been recently renovated throughout. The medieval stone courtyard with its immense stone walls now has a glass roof creating a stunning atrium ideal for dining, sitting and large- scale entertaining. The upstairs has nine double bedrooms, all complimented by their own bathrooms. This property has 31.43 acres of land. There is a range of former barns set away from the main residence which have the potential to be converted to residential or other usage.
This home has incredible bones and a view that is spectacular. The decor is mostly unfortunate and I am horrified at the kitchen and bathroom but otherwise a stunner. For sale via Strutt & Parker.
