5-11 bedroom property in Callington, Cornwall, PL17
This secluded country retreat has a magical charm, its own considerable 7 acres of gardens and grounds surrounded by rolling hills as far as the eye can see. Whiteford once formed part of a landed estate, bringing together the estateโs farmhouse and accompanying cottages, outbuildings and parkland after the original manor house burned down in 1913. The result is a home packed full of delightful details at every turn. On the ground floor, the kitchen/dining room looks out onto one of the propertyโs three walled gardens, including one thatโs home to a beautiful kitchen garden. Meanwhile, to the first floor youโll find a conservatory opening onto the terrace, a tranquil spot overlooking the beautiful greenery complete with a wildlife pond and working waterwheel.

5 bedroom house in Malthouse Lane, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG3
This gorgeous Georgian home, originally part of the prestigious Harewood Estate, promises a tranquil rural retreat yet is within easy reach of Harrogate town centre. This sense of privacy is bolstered in no small part by the peaceful outdoor space, resplendent with a well-kept lawn, perfectly composed flower beds and carefully considered seating areas to enjoy the view across the woodlands and surrounding countryside. The house is believed to date back to 1810 and has been sympathetically restored while incorporating every modern luxury. This approach is reflected throughout the property and grounds, equipped with an all-weather tennis court and a detached garage with an EV charging point.

6 bedroom house in Steventon, Ludlow, Shropshire, SY8
Foldgate Farmhouse has been a labour of love for the current owners, who have enjoyed the property for the past 27 years. Thoughtfully renovated for contemporary living, the Grade II-listed 17th-century farmhouse - believed to be one of the first brick-built houses in the area - retains its characterful features, from stone fireplaces and exposed beams to its oak floors. The outdoor space has been a central focus for the owners, a peaceful Japanese stroll garden created in 2008 by renowned designer Charles Cheshire conceived as a place of quiet reflection and slow discovery of nature. A wander through will unveil flowering cherries, richly hued acers and meticulously maintained greenery, enjoyed against the backdrop of the relaxing sound of flowing water from the ponds and waterfalls.

7 bedroom house, Wentworth Drive, Wentworth, Virginia Water, Surrey, GU25
Home Farm is set within 2.26 acres of beautifully established gardens, offering an exceptional level of maturity, privacy and seclusion rarely found on the Wentworth Estate. The grounds are a true highlight, with sweeping lawns, a koi carp pond, and a wealth of specimen trees creating a picturesque and tranquil environment.
Several lawned areas and sheltered corners provide perfect spaces for relaxation, while a tennis court and swimming pool add to the sense of leisure and lifestyle. The gardens also include a series of seating areas thoughtfully placed to enjoy different views, as well as a private walled garden belonging to the detached cottage, giving it its own sense of charm and seclusion. Together, these elements create an outdoor setting of remarkable character and appeal.

6 bedroom house for sale in Wrens Warren, Chuck Hatch, Hartfield, East Sussex, TN7
Chiddingly Grange is surrounded by 2.18 acres of thoughtfully landscaped gardens that combine beauty, seclusion and a strong connection to nature. Sweeping lawns and wildflower meadows create a sense of openness, while a brook meanders through the grounds, linking into shared woodland and the Ashdown Forest beyond. Designed for outdoor living, the gardens feature multiple terraces, a pergola dining area, built-in barbecue and pizza oven, as well as a wood-fired hot tub positioned on the upper lawn to make the most of the views. The gated courtyard provides secure parking and leads to a triple garage with a flexible garden room, ideal as a studio, orangery or home office, completing this idyllic setting.
