This Victorian Gothic Mansion sits behind iron railings in its own bleak courtyard. A roof terrace sits on high to survey the dark surrounding parklands. Once inside the heavy wooden door a foyer leads you into the dining hall with sweeping staircase and reception area.
Welcome to Spooks hall feel free to wander in the courtyard before going inside for supper.
This gothic style hall was probably built sometime in the Victorian era and nestles amongst the wilds of the English countryside.
Wrought iron railings keep out unwanted intruders ...or perhaps keep in others who'd prefer to leave.
Typically gothic romantic? An eerie beauty amongst the gloom.
The fountain is an unusual design but certainly a talking point to nervous guests.
Once inside your fing yourself within the inner foyer or hallway.
Flagstone floors and walls with minimal but beautiful furnishings.
A large staircase leads to who knows where and I think I see our hostess arriving.
Looking through the area I think this image captures the Victorian atmosphere I wanted to create very well.
A little Halloween twinkle in the hearth of the great fireplace.
A ghostly apparition maybe..... but i think this descending figure is your hostess for the evening.
High domed ceilings and artwork for those with particular tastes.
Looking through to the dining area,
Come pull up a chair, your seat has been reserved.
Here's hoping you're hungry.... and for once the floating glasses and plates are by design.
Please read the sign before eating.
My favourite image of this home.
Back out into the front courtyard....hope your not thinking of leaving so soon.
More gothic (almost prettiness) in the moonlight
A sinister closeup ...previous guests maybe.
This sign is most certainly a MUST READ...... or you'll be sorry!
