Welcome to a truly remarkable property steeped in history, dating back to the early 17th century.
Originally the site of the Old Cock Inn (circa 16001750), parts of the original structure still remain, offering a tangible link to the past.
In the mid-18th century, the estate was acquired by the Rector of Teversal, who constructed the elegant main portion of the house.
Around 1770, Reverend Thomas Hurt expanded the property, setting the stage for the graceful proportions and generous rooms that define the building today.
In the early 1800s, the house passed into the hands of Mr. John Miller, a respected farmer and maltster.
His nephew later transformed the residence into a finishing school for young ladies, as recorded in the 1832 Directory.
For an annual fee of 20 guineas, students were taught an impressive curriculum including needlework, reading, writing, arithmetic, French, and more.
The academy attracted pupils locally and abroad, with promotional materials even reaching France.
Following the opening of the Mansfield Girls Grammar School, the academy closed, and the house returned to private use.
It was entrusted to the daughters of the Miller familyaptly named Faith, Hope, and Charitywhose legacy is deeply woven into the propertys rich narrative.
After a brief period of vacancy, the house was lovingly restored and converted into a guest house by the current owners, Philip and Christine Jordan, who acquired it in 1976.
Today, the guest house stands as a stunning blend of heritage and hospitality.
With its spacious rooms, original architectural features, and beautifully maintained gardens, this property offers a unique opportunity to own or visit a piece of living history‘.
