The Manor House is a classic Georgian property of considerable character in an elevated position in St Nicholas in the Vale of Glamorgan. The house has elegant rooms of generous proportions and high ceilings: the drawing room has tall twin windows overlooking the gardens, and double doors lead to the formal dining room which in turn has French doors out to the gardens.
There are two further formal reception rooms, each at the front of the house: the library and the morning room. The well-equipped kitchen also leads out to the herb garden and a central inner hall has an impressive staircase.
