The space
A handsome blend of Georgian and Victorian architecture, Upper Helmsley Hall will transport its guests to a bygone era of elegance and class with oak panelling throughout the ground floor, authentically furnished, yet fully equipped for 21st century comforts. A perfect setting for a very special gathering of extended family or friends, where a game of tennis can be enjoyed in addition to the exquisite accommodation.

Upper Helmsley Hall retains many of its original features such as oak panelling, exposed beams, sash windows and stunning, intricate cornices. There are four reception rooms to luxuriate in: the generous Oak Room with baby grand piano; the welcoming Drawing Room with two light filled sitting areas; the Tiger Hall with, well ... a stuffed tiger of course, along with desk/study space; and the magnificent fully oak panelled Dining Room, where dressing for dinner is a must. You will feel you are living in classic novel. For less formal dining, the large breakfast kitchen offers plenty of space for the breakfast table, and there is also a butler's pantry, comforting Aga, separate conventional cooking facilities, a large fridge/freezer and two dishwashers, making preparations of those important celebratory meals a joy. Climb the stairs to the first floor where eight very generous bedrooms, all decorated to complement the style of this stunning Hall. In the West Wing, there are two super-king bedrooms (both of which can be converted into twin beds on request), a double bedroom and a twin room. And the East Wing hosts three super-king bedrooms (all of which can be converted into twin beds on request) and a double. The accompanying bathrooms have all been sympathetically restored to cater for modern day needs, featuring large walk-in showers and a roll-top bath.

Outside, to the front of Upper Helmsley Hall, sweeping away from the terrace seating area, the main garden is laid to lawn and leads down to the ha-ha and tennis court for your enjoyment.

This exceptional hideaway is the perfect choice for those looking for something extra special, for either short or longer stays.
