Oldway Mansion is just a few minutes walk away and is an elegant Grade II listed building previously owned by the founder of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, Isaac Merritt Singer.

It is set in 17 acres of beautiful gardens, which are laid out on an Italian theme by the French landscape gardener Achille Duchesne. A walk around the garden allows you to enjoy the maze, which consists of dwarf box hedging and flower beds, the grotto garden where a waterfall passes over a rocky cave into a pool below, tennis courts and a bowling green.

The interior of the building is stunning with its grand staircase made from marble and balusters of bronze and high ceiling decorated with an ornate painting based on an original design for the Palace of Versailles by the French painter and architect Joseph Lebrun.
