Formerly known as Hook Mansion built by William Hornby, the Governor of Bombay between 1785 and 1789. Sadly the mansion burnt down between 1903 and 1908 leaving the listed buildings Golf House and The Orangery and a beautiful walled garden. A further feature of this property is the five acres of communal grounds. These attractive areas include an orchard to the rear of the private garden with pathway lined with Cherry trees leading to the formal lawn garden with intimate seating areas and edged by the original old wall of the estate. To the front of the estate is a large lawn area, a small copse and an open aspect with views towards Southampton Water.
