Polesden Lacey

A Regency villa (1821-3), bought by an Edwardian hostess in 1906 and furnished with an Arts and Crafts garden by J Cheal & Sons. The long grass terrace walk dates from 1671 and was extended by the playwright Sheridan, who lived her from 1797-1816. The Edwardian garden has a series of walled and hedged enclosures with roses and herbaceous planting.
