Restoration

Overseale House was in dire need of repair when it was purchased by the Robinson family in 1996. Extensive redecoration and structural work was necessary to restore the house to good order. Today, as well as opening the house to the public and offering Bed & Breakfast facilities in the restored wing, the Robinsons also use Overseale House as a family home.

Take a look at some of the pictures below to see just how much work needed to be done when they arrived...

We restored everything - even the kitchen sink!
