Love pirates, swimming and art deco cinemas? Well, we’ve found the house for you.

A mansion in Stratford-upon-Avon with a huge pool, cinema, bar and lots of swashbuckling decor has been put on the market.

Among the Treasure Island-themed features are palm trees, a ship’s wheel, a massive fish tank, a cannon in the garden, and figureheads on one of the bed frames.

In one of the rooms, there’s even a very lifelike pirate holding a knife and posed as if he’s scaling down the rafters.

If you fancy a break from all the nautical surroundings, the property also includes two cottages.

The mansion, named Highfield, was the brainchild of the late Felix Dennis, who poured his love for Treasure Island into the home.
