It was built in the early 18th century and privately owned ever since.
The current owner is 90 years old and decided to sell the hous.
Asking price is £ 7,000,000,- which doesn’t seems much. But you will get a renovation report with your purchase, advising you to do some restoration work for about £ 40,000,000,-

My five years are over and it makes me a bit sad to leave you all.

I’m gonna miss you all.

But you will be in good hands. Andrew Giles (ACG) and Paul Franson will take over from me and I am sure that they will come up with some amazing contests, as they are renowned players in this contest.
I wish them all succes and from me it is: So long and thanks for all the fish
