"Cressy Hall" on Historic England website), built in 1794. Mentioned by Pevsner in his renowned architectural guide, The Buildings of England Lincolnshire, this attractive 3-storey brick home offers considerable character and charm, and retains all the grace and elegance of the period’s era. • Cressy Hall is a fabulous example of Georgian design, Period-drama Historic Property with pedimented pavilions, a Doric front doorway flanked by stately columns and crowned by a striking fanlight, positioned within fabulous formal gardens and adjoining pasture paddocks, with wooded boundaries of almost nine acres, which incorporate the moated site of the original dwelling, now a scheduled monument. • From the wedding-cake plasterwork to the original sash windows, the kitchen’s arched stone ovens to its 18th-century dresser, each room reads like a roll call of the era’s architectural trademarks. • Cressy Hall offers in excess of 6,300 sq. ft of accommodation, with significant additional cellar, studio and ancillary accommodation, comprising 3 elegant reception rooms and 7 generous first and second floor bedrooms. • 12-light sash windows piercing the façade and illuminating every room • With its gorgeously grand countenance – all superb symmetry and sash windows – Cressy Hall is a veritable doll’s house, writ large in the fens. • Beautifully preserved all its original features: chimney pieces, large windows, shutters, paneled casements, cupboards, cornicing and pitch pine floorboards. • The House offers beautiful natural light exposure as well as over 10 ft high ceilings, giving a variety of filming options with stunning views. • Incredibly quiet and peaceful, the house has no road to the immediate fore — and therefore no traffic — it looks directly out to infinite verdant lands. • The front door opens into an elegant stone flagged entrance stairwell hall, with an attractive mahogany staircase. With the classic four corner layout, the drawing and dining rooms, each with ornate ceilings, period fireplaces and tall, shuttered sash windows flank the hallway, with the sitting room and the nursery/study to rear of the house. • The dining kitchen is a particularly spacious room, with an adjoining prep kitchen/utility. • A particular feature of the house are also the cellars, which are an important link between the hall and the spacious and versatile studio, the hall’s original staff quarters and dining room. • There are four first floor double bedrooms, served by two bathrooms, with a further three bedrooms, third bathroom and the impressive billiards at second floor. • Positioned within 9 acres of formal gardens and pasture paddocks, the property is approached along a sweeping graveled driveway, which leads to a generous turning sweep and parking at the Hall itself, with access to the oversized garaging. • The gardens and land are largely arranged to the south and west of the Hall and comprise sweeping lawns, with a haha to the paddocks, and topiary yew-hedged walkways leading between rose and fruit orchard gardens, and a large and productive walled kitchen garden. With many native species specimen trees, the gardens are beautifully secluded, whilst the southerly aspect provides superb natural light. • The paddocks adjoin the gardens to their south, with woodland to their southern boundary and estate fenced boundaries to the driveway, they incorporate the remains of the moat house site in their south-east corner. • We take great pride in hosting, and we are experienced in collaborating with Interviews and Podcasts productions as the set-up is ideal for those in terms of privacy, quietness, and views in the background. • We are opened and available for: o Photo shootings and Social media content creation o Films and documentaries o Interviews / Podcasts o Events (Wedding receptions, Baby showers, Hen Parties, Birthdays etc..) o Retreats, incl. corporate events, Yoga classes etc.. o Kitchen / Cooking shows o Content Creation o YouTube Videos o Photography o Tik Tok Videos o Social Media o Blogging o Product Shoots o Editorials • Extra-Services: o Crew can move furniture and use all available amenities during the shooting. o We can offer to keep the filming / photography equipment overnight. o Parking is complimentary for the crew.

Myself and my photographer had the best day! The host, Luka, was so nice and helpful while giving us the space that we needed, too. They also helped to organise taxis to/from the venue to the nearest train station, which really added to a smooth and joyful day. Highly recommend this location for its wonderful natural features, great outdoor space and the kindness and warmth of the hosts. Enjoy!
