As your photos show, their lake is lovely to look at, softens the architecture and allows lush garden landscaping.

And a natter with the wicked Baron as a bonus! Certainly a place that will be added to ABAB's ever-growing list... And a pleasant surprise on your return home - I hope they weren't expecting tea.
