These gardens reflect the changing times of the estate, and the tastes of its many previous owners. The Italianate garden is the earliest surviving example of its kind in the UK, distilling the essence of classical Italy with an English touch. The stumpery adds a dash of Victorian mystery, with ferns nestling among the gnarled roots.
