Liz Hurley lists Ampney Knowle, to keep Donnington Hall

Model and actress Liz Hurley is selling one of her luxury Midland homes – for £6 million. 

The six bedroom Ampney Knowle (pictured above), near Cirencester, Gloucestershire has been listed so she can concentrate on decorating and furnishing Donnington Hall at Ledbury, Herefordshire.

Liz is planning to live at Donnington Hall, which is 40 miles away.

The larger 13 bedroom property was bought in 2012 with her ex, former Australian cricketer Shane Warne, so Title Tattle suggests it appears she will now buy out his half share interest.

“It’s no secret that I bought Donnington Hall with my former fiancé and it was a tough decision to choose which house to keep as I love them both," Liz told the The Sunday Times Home supplement after her recent decision.

“But I’m looking forward to decorating and furnishing Donnington.

“I’ll be sorry to leave Ampney Knowle because every inch of the house and garden holds a happy memory for me.”

The swimwear designer bought stone-built Ampney Knowle for £3.3 million in 2003.

It is set in 450 acres of Cotswolds countryside, has six bedrooms, a guest annexe, cottages in the grounds and outbuildings.

The Cotswold estate, that comprises more than 144 acres, has been listed by Knight Frank.
