History

History

Springkell was built in 1734 and since then has been continually modernised for the changing needs of its inhabitants, without losing its original character. It has been in the Johnson-Ferguson family since the late 1800s, and now reflects all aspects of its nearly 300-year life. The house is warm and comfortable, and best-suited to being filled with happy guests.
