Is there anything more quintessentially English than walking through country house gardens and stopping to look at a view that was designed hundreds of years ago and has remained little changed since then?
This particular spot, nestled in the gardens of a stately home in Wiltshire, dates back to the 1700s and has a fascinating history. The lake, the Palladian bridge and Roman-inspired Pantheon were all designed to create a stunning vista. And we think it’s as beautiful today as it was back then. When we check our routes through the countryside in this part of England, we always pause here to take in the view.
