Sopwell House is set amidst 12 acres of tranquil countryside featuring landscaped gardens with a Japanese-inspired pond and bridge, plenty of large, open spaces, and a walled garden available for team building activities. The location is secluded enough to offer a quiet haven, yet still near to superb transport links.  Electricity and water supply available.
