In the Main Hall the charm and scale of the original rooms remain.  The ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance leading into the large oak hall with a grand staircase and carved fire place.  Off this lies the fine drawing room (which can have access to the formal gardens), billiard room (including large-sized billiard table, library and TV), and dining room.

Behind these lie the kitchen and sculleries, laundry, boot and cloak rooms.  The main kitchen is thought to date back to 1630 and is one of the oldest parts of The Hall.  It is a large, working kitchen well equipped with an oil-fired AGA, large electric cooker, commercial size stainless steel fridge and table that will seat twenty four people.  A freezer can be made available on request.  The laundry room is equipped with a washer and dryer for the use of guests and there is a stereo provided in the main hall.  Central heating and hot water are supplied by an oil fired boiler.
