Woodside, Badminton Road, Badminton, GL9 1HE

This substantial wing of an impressive building, originally constructed by the Duke of Beaufort in 1903 as a hotel for hunting guests, is accompanied by a wonderful large garden.

After serving the Red Cross during both World Wars, the building was converted into three dwellings in the early 1970s, with Woodside forming the north-eastern wing.
