The Hall: A Blend of History and Leisure:
Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of history woven through The Hall, first documented in the Domesday Book. Set against the stunning 14-acre backdrop of Priest’s Hill, it offers breathtaking views and many leisure facilities. History buffs will appreciate its connection to noble names like Henry de Ferrers, the Cokaynes, and the Harthills, not to mention a rumoured stay by King Henry VIII himself.

The hall’s history is enriched by a 1259 Papal Bull issued to Sir Richard de Hartle by Pope Alexander II. Today, the chapel symbolizes this past as The Chapel and Hartle Cottage. The eight exquisite cottages, brimming with antiques, surround a medieval cobbled courtyard, each retaining original features—thick stone walls, large oak beams, mullion windows, and flagstone floors.
