This Georgian mansion, that overlooks the city, is a visually striking building which boasts stunning architecture, complemented by a homely, comfortable interior. With over 31,000 visitors every year this popularity has taken its toll with the grandeur starting to fade. This building has been standing since 1846 and we need to breathe new life into it by keeping and embracing the rich history it offers to complement the local UNESCO World Heritage area. Here you'll find romantic balconies, carved stone pillars, an intricate wrought iron staircase and beautiful Roman-inspired detail throughout this Georgian property. All of these unique architectural features are in need of preservation and restoration to meet the expectations of future generations.
We need your help to raise money for a complete renovation of this amazing property as we can't do it alone. We have raised £2.25 million so far but still need to raise £250,000 to complete all the work needed. Please help us to preserve this local asset and unique place to stay so that many more young people can come to explore this beautiful city.
