Dotted around our intimately beautiful estate are 53 sculptures created by more than 20 sculptors from around the country. Each stands proud and resolute, happily positioned amongst their surroundings to provide guests with a unique experience to appreciate not just the natural beauty of our grounds, but also of these strikingly poignant and beautiful constructions.
The sculptures of witty and glamorous ladies displayed in our sculpture trail are created by Sara Ingleby-Mackenzie. They take a light-hearted view of society, exploring how in our image conscious world we wear sunglasses, go bare footed, teeter on impossible heels, and carry expensive handbags all for others to take note of. We are delighted to host this Meet The Artist event with Sara.
