“Set on a 26-acre lake estate, this historic mansion seamlessly blends its Georgian charm with modern amenities. I think that the on-site spa, located in a historic building, is a true highlight, alongside unique access to private lake fishing. It is a place that I believe is suitable for both romantic getaways and memorable family experiences.”
