Charming 15th-century manor house with Arts and Crafts garden

This beautiful medieval manor sits in peaceful countryside. Cross the upper moat, passing barns, gatehouse and delightful parish church to enjoy fine oriel windows and the soldiers, griffons and monkey adorning the rooftops.

Great Chalfield Manor House is home to the donor family tenants, who manage the house on behalf of the Trust.
