Detached house to rent in Bayham Abbey, Lamberhurst, Tunbridge Wells TN3

In a slightly elevated position, Bayham Hall is formed from the west wing of an extraordinary country mansion. Designed and constructed in the 1870s by David Brandon, the Bayham Hall Estate occupies a site close to the protected ruins of Bayham Abbey. Subject to an extensive and imaginative programme of restoration, Bayham Hall itself is most unusual in that twenty-first century technologies and energy saving devices have been the focus of ensuring the protection of such a wonderful property. The accommodation extends to over 7,800 square feet and is arranged over three floors. A beautiful double front door with ornate wrought iron detailing opens through to the entrance hall, which in turn continues to the reception hall with its cathedral-like stained glass window and handsome oak, easy rising staircase leading up to a galleried landing. The two primary reception rooms have a gracious grandeur with gorgeous views and the kitchen/dining room is set within the former library, so has expansive proportions. Bedrooms are laid out over the upper two levels with the principal suite occupying a large portion of the first floor and enjoys the marvellous views. There are seven further bedrooms serviced by two bath/shower rooms, one an en-suite.
