Historically significant, this 17th century house with its three-acre garden is bursting with inspirational planting and magnificent architectural structures. The charming Italianate summerhouse, game larder, pergolas and vast stone-paved courtyard were designed by Sir Edward Lutyens and strongly influenced by Gertrude Jekyll. The garden is available for group visits, weddings and business events.
