From the second you glimpse Pylewell Park through its tree-lined driveway, you will feel as if you have ‘arrived’!
As the crowning glory of the manor house, the fabulous Penthouse boasts breathtaking views over endless acres of private grounds, sweeping across The Solent.
With a colourful history of poets, artists & musicians; the Penthouse style feels a part of that… and a glass of champagne or two are never out of place! When you have surveyed the land from your rooftop terrace… and that might take a while… please do head back down to explore your aristocratic apartment!
In the generous & grandiose living/dining area; the incredible views continue. Since 1874 it’s not changed much, except for a recent, and beautiful, interior renovation. Usually much is written about the houses in these write-ups. But the pictures tell plenty here: a fun 50’s-esque kitchen, the orange bathroom (complete with giant bath), and sumptuous sofas where you’ll spend most of your down time… unless you’re out on the upper deck spotting boats with your binoculars.
After shotgunning one of the 3 x gorgeous boudoirs, the gardens (and private path to the wild beach) are yours for the taking! In the 1800’s, as international travel and plant collecting became THE cool way to demonstrate your family kudos…trees and plants were as cool as super cars… the estate owners invested in foreign seed collecting and built an arboretum of must-see rare trees. The two Wellingtonia’s that frame the view from the back of the house are the result of that forethought, and are well admired by tree-lovers across Britain.
We love the forests of pink, peachy and yellow Magnolia’s that flower in Spring (and some in Autumn) + the lake walk has got to be one of the most secret and romantic walks to be experienced in Hampshire. Perfect for seriously ‘wow’ picnics…
