The house forms part of what was the Lord & Lady Caernarvon’s (of Highclere Castle/Downton Abbey fame) summer sailing/marine residence from the 1920’s – 1940’s. Multiple dignitaries & royalty were entertained and resided at this magnificent coastal property. This particular house was developed in the 1990’s to a high standard which delivered an impressive family home with large rooms, all just metres from the wonderful AONB coastline/Bouldnor Bay. The conversion created 5 large houses for which this is one and is located at the western end.
