Set in beautiful gardens there are tranquil woodland walks, an Australasian arboretum and a pretty Italianate Terrace Garden. The exquisite Rex Whistler painting adorns the dinning room, with exhibitions dedicated to the artist, including fantastic examples of trompe l'oeil, theatre designs and book illustrations.
