“An idyllic Prep School which retains traditional facilities that have been lost or modernised in so many schools. Think ‘Swallows and Amazons’ or Roald Dahl’s ‘Boy’! The historic clocktower sits in the grounds, overlooking the Italianate Grade II Listed main building which houses the boarding house and dining rooms. It offers a series of original rooms, including the boudoir, the drawing room and the library spill off the main hall. A sweeping staircase with original artwork lining the walls leads up to the large boarding house with about 40 traditional dormitories. A swimming pool, shooting range, sports hall, astroturf, tennis courts, as well as two large cricket pitches, make up the sporting facilities. There is a large theatre as well as a victorian house, a treehouse classroom and a fishing lake.”
