Project highlights

Country Estate

Cherkley Court was acquired by Beaverbrook in 1911, the year after he entered Parliament. Following a fire in 1893, the house had been substantially rebuilt and restored in the French chateau style as a last-gasp monument to the richness of late Victorian architecture. 

Beaverbrook re-decorated the house completely, installing his own swimming pool, tennis court and private cinema and was much influenced in his purchase by his friend Rudyard Kipling, as well as by the proximity of the house to London, making it within easy reach of Westminster and the City. 

Its proximity to the city is still appealing described as a 'bolthole which is herd to leave’.

SWS Hardware specified door furniture and hardware from the Dorë Prestige Range for the Upper Lodge (known as the Hamper), Cookery School, Garden House Cottage, Specialist doors to the Clubhouse, Maintenance Building, Health Club Spa Pool and the Main House. 

All of which has been integrated in with a key suite system.
