Overview - Purchased over 20 years ago, the current owners of Brock Hall had two objectives; firstly to create a stunning country home that would provide a wonderful upbringing for their children and secondly to create a new business venture that combined passion with success. They founded Brock Hall Farm Dairy, a venture that produced internationally award-winning cheeses, lovingly made using the milk from the owner’s herd of pure Saanen goats. Every single one of the Brock Hall goats cheeses won three Great Taste gold stars and gained a loyal following from local chefs to international Michelin starred chefs and even the Royal Family.

Accommodation Features - Renovated to an exceptionally high standard, extensions include a garden room from the kitchen and a recreational area for a gym and a fully ventilated and humidity controlled indoor swimming pool, bi-fold doors to the garden, limestone tiling and a separate Tylo sauna. The further internal accommodation has been fully upgraded with creative lighting, solid oak flooring throughout, solid oak doors, windows and electrical switches. The flooring in the kitchen, garden room and laundry room are sandstone. Mark Wilkinson designed and built the bespoke solid oak breakfast kitchen, utility, guest WC and cupboards in the music room, whilst upstairs, the company designed and built oak wardrobes, bedroom furniture and bathroom cabinetry. The principal bathroom was designed by Ripples and includes underfloor heating, limestone walls and floor and a concealed Meridian sound system.
