The house is entered by a small outer hall, panelled in walnut, now 200 years old, and elegantly tiled, leading into the spacious and carefully designed library and billiard room from which radiate the principal rooms.
The library has a carved cornice and gilt mantelpiece, both of Charles II period and originally in Nell Gwynn's house in Soho, London.
An inner hall gives access to the main staircase, kitchen breakfast room, drawing room, and garden porch entrance.

The kitchen breakfast room has a large refectory table and oil fired Sandyford range. There is a dishwasher and refrigerator. Note deep-freeze and washing machine are available in the butler's area.

The drawing room, overlooking the valley and stone flagged gardens, has an Adam marble mantelpiece which adds to the period style of this large comfortable room.

On the first floor the King's bedroom has its own bathroom and inner landing. This large double room overlooks the stately Douglas firs with valley views beyond and formal gardens to the south.

The gallery landing gives access to the nursery (two single beds), body guard's room (double bed), dressing room (two single beds), and rose bedroom with magnificent half tester double bed. These bedrooms all have access to another bathroom, washroom and a shower room.

On the second floor an attic bedroom with four low single beds is accessed through a sitting room with sky TV. Note this room is suitable for children.
