The gothic country house film setting for Dracula and the Rocky Horror Picture Show is going on sale.
Oakley Court, which is currently used as a hotel, is being sold after the hotel business went into administration last week.
The property has 118 bedrooms, including 11 luxury suites, as well as substantial meeting and conference facilities

Included in the asking price - which has not yet been revealed - is a nine-hole golf course, set in more than 37 acres of landscaped gardens, leading onto a private stretch of the River Thames.
Built in 1859, Oakley Court was a private residence until its last domestic owner Ernest Olivier died in 1965.
While the house stood empty for the next 14 years it was regularly used as a film set for Hammer Horror films, because it was next to Bray studios.
As well as being used in the Dracula films, it was Frank N Furters castle in the cult classic Rocky Horror Picture Show.
In 1979 it underwent conversion to a hotel and opened its doors to the public two years later.
Recently the hotel hosted several members of Team GB during the London 2012 Olympic Games.
