Odstone Hall is a handsome and substantial country house with Elizabethan origins, and an impressive Georgian façade which was added in the 18th century.
From a state of dereliction, the property was extensively refurbished in the early 2000s with great attention to detail and careful choice of materials and final finishes. Despite the extent of the renovation, great care was taken to preserve and enhance the original period features including a wealth of exposed timbers, impressive fireplaces and some fine ceiling mouldings. Because of the house's historical and architectural importance it has been mentioned in a number of historical books, including Sir Nikolaus Bernhard Leon Pevsner's authoritative guide to the buildings of England. Of particular note it is recorded that in 1649 the then owner, John Bradshaw, was the President's Judge of the High Court which condemned King Charles I to death and whose signature appears on the death warrant.
In 2008, the owners offered the Hall for sale for just under two million pounds. The Hall is currently a hotel with swimming pool and tennis courts. You can see more details at this link**.
