Description

Hinton Ampner

One of the great gardens of the 20th century

A masterpiece of design by Ralph Dutton, 8th and last Lord Sherborne, the 5-hectare (12-acre) garden unites a formal layout with varied and informal plantings in pastel shades. There are magnificent vistas over 32 hectares (80 acres) of parkland and rolling Hampshire countryside. The house contains Ralph Dutton’s fine collection of Regency furniture, Italian paintings and hardstone items
