|
| Despite its convenient location and good access to the areaâ??s main roads, the hotel has a quiet, tranquil location that ensures a restful, relaxing, restorative stay. Its attractive surroundings and the beautiful grounds make it a beautiful setting for weddings and other functions, with the large conservatory-style dining room opening out onto the grounds. As a part of the larger milton hill estate, the house was once owned by the sewing machine magnate, sir mortimer singer. It is rumoured that his mistress, isadora duncan, the famous dancer, lived here for a time. From 1903 to 1912, the house was home to the eyston family, of whom george, a racing driver, was the most famous. He broke more world records with different types of motor vehicle than any other man of his time. In 1938, he broke the world's land speed record for the third time, travelling at 357 mph (575 km/h) in his vehicle, thunderbolt. A plaque to this effect can be found on the wall by the front door of the hotel. |
