Considered one of the most extensive and complete Roman villas in England, this structure was occupied from the late second century to the mid-fourth century.
The floors and foundations of a large Roman Villa with the mosaics of the principal rooms under a specially created building with floating walkways as well as other outlying remains set in a most peaceful head-of-the-valley setting in a remote location. There’s plenty of outside space to sit, stroll and picnic, a small museum in a Victorian hunting lodge, a National Trust visitor centre with shop & etc. Parking is either immediately adjacent or a short stroll away. Well worth the trip.

ABOUT US This Tudor farmhouse, located adjacent to the River Thames, was built of local limestone in 1570. Later, the Manor became the Cotswold retreat of William Morris and his family, friends and colleagues. When Morris first saw the Manor in 1871, he was delighted by this 'loveliest haunt of ancient peace'; he signed a joint lease for the property with his friend and colleague Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the Pre-Raphaelite artist. The Manor is currently closed for major conservation and improvement works.

This beautiful manor house is complemented by a restored 18th-century water garden and magnificent fountain, one of the world’s tallest garden fountains reaching more than 300 feet high.
Delightful Home and gardens in a beautiful spot which I can walk to from my old home. Outstanding area of beauty on the Cotswold walks. Fountain worth seeing as well as the Mill. Friendly welcome. A real home!

Newark Park stands proud on top of the Cotswold escarpment, looking down into the Ozleworth valley to the Mendips beyond. This remote corner of south Gloucestershire is a secret and unspoilt place, with barely a sign of modern life visible in any direction. A place of architectural intrigue, quaint gardens and sprawling parkland there is much to see and do at Newark.Founded by an influential English courtier to Henry VIII in 1550; the house and estate since went from boom to bust, to its dramatic rescue by a Texan architect in the 20th century. Newark has an incredible story to tell.
We broke a long journey with a couple of hours at Newark Park. What a great time we had. Interesting house (although only the ground floor is open at the moment), lovely walks in the extensive grounds (with nice chats with the gardeners), fascinating sculpture exhibition in the grounds with every one available to purchase (some at eye watering prices!) Friendly staff and volunteers, good hot drinks available but very little food and virtually nothing for the gluten-free.
