The house is a magnificent and carefully conserved neo-Palladian villa. A big part of the house's charm is its mellow feel and the sense that it still feels like a family home. The grounds are well worth exploring and there are many paths through acres of shady woodlands and grasslands. See if you can find the remains of the 18th-century tea house, and the enchanting and mysterious shell grotto.
