A twentieth century castle, designed by Edwin Lutyens for a millionaire businessman. George Dillistone.helped with the garden design. It was a picturesque conception: a dramatic site, a castellated building and Reptonian terraces. But it is a chilly place and one cannot help remembering that Lutyens did not like spending time in gardens. He needed Gertrude Jekyll to advise him on how to make useful and beautiful outdoor space.
