Business profile
Built in 1840, this Grade II listed Victorian 'Gentleman's residence' is elegant, spacious and beautifully equipped, offering comfort and peace. You are guaranteed a warm welcome and can access a wide range of therapies and treatments here at the house to make your stay even more special. Merlewood has many original features and extensive renovations have taken place in recent years. As the current owner, I am attempting to restore more of the character that has been lost by neglect or 'well intentioned' improvements. The house at one point had seven bedrooms but work has taken place to try and restore it to its original plan of four, first floor bedrooms, which are spacious and all en-suite. The large garden is a work-in-progress, having been completely neglected for the last fifteen years and I suspect it will take a few years to develop to its full, potential glory. During your stay, feel free to walk or sit in the garden Or if you happen to be a keen gardener and want more energetic relaxation, just ask and I will show you where the tools are kept.
