I worked at this place in the mid 70s as a young teenager. I waited on tables. Stayed over for the weekend in the 'bell tower'. I was 13 or 14 and I love this place. So thrilled to see this photograph. Please can anyone remind me of the names of the people who ran the place at this time. It was a magical building with a wonderful garden.
