Our opinion
In Somerset, in the heart of the Blackmore Vale, a mansion that perpetuates eight centuries of history on its grounds. Since 1803, the estate has been home to Regency architecture of rare consistency, built in gilded Ham stone and incorporating fragments from the previous century. The 1876 extension features a curved glass roof with fluted columns, a natural extension to the gardens. Recent restoration work has preserved the green marble fireplaces, period woodwork and authentic stone floors, while integrating contemporary features. The succession of reception rooms reveals the art of English living in its generous proportions. The gardens unfold their structured perspectives, combining parterres with the flower-filled meadows of the old orchard, creating a green setting that converses with the neighbouring parish church in an atmosphere of rural tranquillity.
