Take stock of the original carved oak panelling and fabulous décor, which is scattered with numerous fleur-de-lys, the family emblem of the French dynasty that once occupied the hall. One of Wood Norton’s strengths is the successful marriage of splendid Victorian detail with the everyday needs of modern life. In the feature bedrooms, period features and amazing bathrooms, with pedestal baths portray the original hall style, many with fireplaces and views on to the gardens and the Vale of Evesham.
