Minterne House nestles in 1,600 acres of beautiful Dorset countryside in the Cerne Valley. Built in 1906, Minterne is a Stately Edwardian house with enormously bright & airy rooms, nearly all of which have double-door entrances & interlink well with each other. Boasting Elizabethan & Georgian architecture, in addition, the house has a picture gallery, mullioned Gothic windows, & barrel vaulted ceilings. The ground floor consists of the Trafalgar Hall, a formal Drawing room & Dining room with original Churchill tapestries & the first floor has 4 en-suite rooms. The Digby family live on the top floor of the house.
