The House has a well equipped kitchen with electric range cooker & free-standing electric, full granite worktops. American Fridge Freezer with ice maker. There is also a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble drier. It is well- equipped and we frequently have local caterers come to the House. There is also a bonus of a hatch between the kitchen and large dining room. The dining room has two / three tables and seating for up to 23 guests.
The sitting room as already mentioned is quite unique with mahogany panelling from the Mauritania ocean liner, a large open fire and extends in area to 34 x 17 feet in area with numerous couches and comfy armchairs for all guests. . There is also a smart TV with sky and Unlimited Wifi. We also have 1 double bedroom on the groundfloor which has an ensuite shower and washhandbasin and is just opposit the downstairs cloakroom and toilet.
There are 4 bedrooms on the first floor; 2 ensuite 1 with a full bathroom and the other a shower room, another has a vanity unit and washbasin. and there is also the full size family bathoom on this floor.. On the second floor are a futher 3 bedrooms one has a toilet and wash basin en suite and the large back bedroom sleeps 6 guests in single beds and is ideal for children. There is also a shower room on this floor.
The garden is enclosed but we cannot guarantee that an adventurous dog or child can't escape! The garden has various areas including the patio with built in Barbeque, which is easily accessed from the kitchen and the reception room with pool table. The patio has a brick barbeque built in and 4 picnic benches seating up to 24. Please note dog owners should supervise pets to avoid damage, digging and escapes!
Please note because we are a self-catering property bed-linen is included but towels are an optional extra and we advise guests to bring their own personal towels as the laundry costs are high. (I have to add this; we only provide one toilet roll per lavatory)
Guest access
Guests hire the entire property (excluding the cellars & garage). I can shut off 2 bedrooms during the low season or for mid week stays. which makes the house more affordable for smaller groups.
Other things to note
Please note I can only accept minimum bookings for a weekend of Friday & Saturday nights (which includes up to 3pm Sunday). Midweeks are normally 3 nights Smaller groups can book off peak for less by my closing off bedrooms and should contact me about this. As you can imagine running Ravensprings is very expensive and you do get the whole House when you book.

Leave ReviewLovely Outdoor Area
By Francesca on 02-Jul-2023We stayed here over a weekend for my friends hen party and we had such a lovely time! The house is huge so there is plenty of space for big groups. The kitchen and living room areas are very big. The kitchen has 2 big fridge freezers and 2 ovens so perfect for cooking for big groups. The living room is so big with plenty of comfy seating! The beds are very comfy as well. There is also a lovely outdoor area with picnic benches so great for eating outdoors. Josy and Caroline are so friendly and very responsive any questions we had they responded immediately. Thank you for making our weekend go so smoothly. Would love to stay here again and recommend this place to everyone!
Beautiful Mansion
By Lindsey on 19-Apr-2024Beautiful mansion, full of character. A fantastic place to hold my Dad's wake. Josy was a friendly and responsive host. Caroline the house keeper was wonderful and incredibly helpful. Lovely and clean too.

Gorgeous Bedrooms
By Rosie on 22-Mar-2024We had a fantastic stay at Ravensprings for my sister's hen do. The house is beautiful, with gorgeous bedrooms, more than enough bathrooms between us all (16 of us) and huge living room and dining room space. Josy was helpful and responsive in the lead up to the booking, and Caroline was extremely helpful organising an early check in and giving clear instructions about the house. Would highly recommend!
Lovely Place

Warm, Clean and Characterful
By Amy on 05-Apr-2024We booked Ravensprings for two nights for my sister’s hen do and it was just what we needed. 16 of us came from across the country and there was plenty of space inside and out! The house was warm, clean, and characterful and the kitchen had lots of crockery and glassware - there were a fair few ladybirds in a couple of the bedrooms due to old windows, but nothing I wouldn’t expect from this kind of house. Both Josy and Caroline were extremely helpful and responsive when booking and checking in, with earlier access to the house to do a food shop and decorate hugely appreciated. I’d recommend to anyone looking for a large space to host a get together.
