Here’s a little trivia: Gilmour once hosted a charity cricket match on the lawn, with proceeds going to local schools. The grounds are so expansive that you could probably reenact the “Another Brick in the Wall” music video without leaving your property.
Also, the lake is home to carp, tench, and even a few swans—so you’ll have company. If David Gilmour can find peace here, so can you. Just don’t expect the ghosts of past rock stars to offer guitar lessons at sunrise.
What Would You Do With the Studio?
The recording studio on site is a soundproofed dream. You could record your own album, host a podcast, or simply sit in there and pretend you’re mixing the final track of The Endless River. I’d suggest using it for morning meditation—the acoustics alone might align your chakras.

If you’re a musician, this studio could be your creative cocoon. If you’re not, it’s the world’s most expensive silent reading room. No judgment here.
