Prepare for a unique stay at this Grade II-listed manor house tucked away in the countryside fringing the historic town of Wolverton. Dating back to the 12th century, this palatial home retains its grand period features (including elements of an old stone castle) yet has all the contemporary comforts you'll need. Spread across four floors, there's a games room with an arcade machine, karaoke machine and piano, a private sauna, and a stately dining room for lavish dinner parties – the list goes on and on. Outside, you'll love the vast lawns and hot tub, and there are stacks of countryside walks close by along the Ouse Valley.
