The Purple House rooms were converted from a former flower barn used to store them when they were collected from the adjacent fields. The Purple House, being a 17th century cottage, was notably used during the second world war as a remote getaway for advisers to Winston Churchill. Recent renovations to the property and grounds have seen the house return to it’s original roots, now a selection of flowers and shrubs are grown, and available to buy, in the gardens of the building.
