The house is Elizabethan in orgin, a wonderful example of a west country manor, enlarged in the late 1670's. It is now occupied by the Earl and Countess of Sandwich and is a family house dating back to the restoration of King charles 2nd when the first Earl of Sandwich brought him back from Holland.
