Uplands House, beautiful reception rooms.

 
     
 

This gracious old house is in excellent order throughout, and benefits from a wealth of original period detail. The well proportioned rooms have high ceilings and large windows which look out over idyllic pastoral scenery.

 
     
 

The Drawing Room

A very elegant yet cosy room, it has two large windows facing over the rose garden, the croquet lawn and the parkland. The Drawing room is always at the disposal of our guests, and tea of coffee is available at any time.

This is where our visitors meet each other, and make new friends, have tea and home made cake on arrival, (unless we serve it in the garden,) and it is where we gather before dinner to enjoy a welcoming glass of wine, a tumbler of Pimms, a gin and tonic, a whisky, or some Champagne. Our drinks cupboard is very well stocked.

The comforts and mementos make this room the heart of the family home into which we welcome you. Luxuriate in the deeply comfortable sofas you just sink into, or relax with a book and a glass of wine in a more upright upholstered arm chair. Discuss the history of lovely old pictures, clocks, antique furniture and lamps. Chat to your hosts and your fellow guests, and let your mind wander as you watch the fire flickering in the handsome Adam fireplace which throws a rosy glow before and after dinner on chilly nights. Browse through a selection of magazines and books, or indulge in a game of Majong, Cribbage, Bridge, Backgammon or Draughts.

The Dining Room

This used to be the old kitchen before the house was modernised in 2003. However, its size and outlook make it an ideal place to eat, with the extendable Regency dining table and chairs. There is also a display cabinet to house the remains of old family green and white tea sets. At Uplands people all eat together round one table, and we usually have dinner with our guests, but if they prefer, they can eat on their own.

The Orangery

With double glazed French windows on two sides, this room overlooks the fountain, the lily pond, and the rose garden. The outlook in Summer is delightful; with the double doors open the perfume of the roses comes wafting in, and the garden can be floodlit when it gets dark. On fine evenings we can have a drink by the bubbling brook before dinner, and listen to the early evening call of the plovers. Later on we can often hear the owls hooting and occasionally glimpse a shooting star.

It is useful to have a second dining area, because sometimes we have a small party who want to eat alone, and if there is anyone else, they can eat with us in the Orangery. Feel free to invite your local friends to join you for dinner.
