6 Description Follies Farm is a truly unique country estate which exudes an informal and idyllic charm. The main house is approached over the long sweeping drive, passing through open pasture and parkland grounds, surrounding the house and affording a rare and very special setting. External elevations and internal features are of enormous character with abundant exposed oak, both original and reclaimed; open log fires; and exposed brick walls and chimney breasts. The floors are wood block and crafted oak boards, and there is impressive joinery and notable oak doors. The interior design throughout gives warmth and an atmosphere of relaxed informality.
