There are many stories associated with the house, and even the individual room, the Empire Room contains the exact furniture that a French Officer would have taken with him when fighting alongside Napoleon. The drawing room contains a gift presented by the Empress of Austria after her many stays here.
The delightfully landscaped grounds and gardens of the Estate contain a wonderful mixture of formal gardens and 500 acres of woodland. The ancient yew tree recorded in the Doomsday Book leans over the banks of the Bombo Burn presiding on the changes over the centuries.
