The Lords Room |
|
As
the name suggests a grand and luxurious room once occupied
in Jacobean times, by the Lord and Lady of the Manor
of Allington. Decorated and dressed in a grand
style, it is well suited to those in search of a little
opulence.
The
freestanding roll-top bath, 6-foot bateau bed, subtle
lighting and open fire with its seventeenth century
stone surround – all work to create the exclusive
feel, which has been demanded by successive Lords of
the Manor for the past 400 years.
This
room enjoys views over the front garden and across a
meadow to the village green. It also boasts an en suite
toilet and shower, T.V, radio, wireless internet connection
and coffee & tea making facilities. An ideal room
for a special occasion.
