The Gardens and Grounds | ||
The remarkable 18th century landscaping of the Park, its vistas and lakes, are by an unknown hand and much has been restored. The celebrated gardens are of great variety with many specimen trees. The formal and wild gardens surrounding and adjacent to the house have been mainly developed during the present century and these developments have continued to the present day. A number of distinguished landscape designers have been involved - Robert Weir Schultz, Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe and Dame Sylvia Crowe. The main inspiration came from the late Hon. Lady Macdonald-Buchanan. Projects commissioned by the present owners have been led by garden designers, James Alexander Sinclair, Angela Collins and most recently Arne Maynard. | ||
