The Courtyard Mews is part of the 400-acre Longueville House Estate, itself home to a 300-year-old listed Stately Georgian Country House - steeped in history, now a charming stand-alone self catering Country Home with five guest bedrooms and available to rent.
As the name implies, the mews occupies one side of a large and partly cobbled, neo-classical courtyard, with fine a topiary centrepiece, to the rear of the main house.
Visitors are free to roam across this working estate where all the produce for the large house is grown. There is a fabulous reclaimed walled kitchen garden for vegetables, and a 32-acre cider apple orchard used to produce on-site artisan cider, some which is double distilled into an exclusive and unique Apple Brandy. The majestic group of oak trees in the parkland to the front of the house was planted in 1815, to celebrate Wellington's victory at the Battle of Waterloo. Closer to the main house lies a wild flower meadow which comes into full bloom in mid July. The property links down to the banks of the River Blackwater.
