The kitchen is served by a wine cellar and a circular kitchen garden with greenhouse.

Reception rooms in the house include a lounge, dining room, orangery, laundry, study and cloakroom/toilet.

The original staircase has been retained and leads to the five bedrooms, all of which are doubles and have en-suite facilities in addition to a family bathroom.
