“This honey stone family home was built as a retreat house for the Abbess of Wilton. Set in a remote hamlet, it has a lovely abundant garden, and inside is rambling, friendly and full of well worn antique furniture, with walls painted in earthy colours. Guest bedrooms (2 doubles/twin, one single) are delightful, with their own pretty and newly fitted bathrooms. Breakfasts are made from local ingredients, much of them from the kitchen garden. Tennis court, heated swimming pool; walks from the door.”

“Baverstock Manor is a mellow stone 15th century house built for the Abbess of Wilton as her retreat house. It combines original features, comfortable antique furniture, warm, earthy colours with modern bathrooms. The house is situated in a peaceful hamlet 9 miles from Salisbury and 12 miles from Stonehenge in beautiful countryside. It is surrounded by its own lovely garden and there is a swimming pool and tennis court. Superb walking from the house. Breakfasts are made with the freshest local, and if possible, organic produce. There are excellent local pubs and restaurants which can be booked. Dinner available by arrangement.”
