    tHe House

    One of Englands nest moated Tudor Houses,

    which still remains a lived in family home.

    A strikingly romantic survival.

    restoration

    Not just a Tudor House one saved from

    years of neglect by the present owners

    commitment. Extensive works (new works

    as much as restoration) undertaken over the

    last 40 years have saved this magical House.

    tHe Gardens

    These too have been revived and re-created noted for their wonderful sense of

    tranquility, inspired by the Moats and mellow

    brickwork. These are gardens to enjoy in a

    leisurely way as you wander, with surprises

    and delights to stimulate the senses.

    tHe Farm

    Built from scratch in Tudor style, with

    traditional oak framed buildings to serve

    Kentwells rare breed farm animals.
