Stanway House, Gloucestershire

Stanway House is a beautiful Jacobean manor house in Stanway, Gloucestershire. Currently the home of Lord and Lady Neidpath, Stanway House was owned by Tewkesbury Abbey for 800 years then for 500 years by the Tracy family and their descendants, the Earls of Wemyss. There are many attractions such as the fascinating furniture, the jewel-like Gatehouse which was built about 1630, the church and 14th-century Tithe Barn, the 18th-century water-garden (one of the finest in England), the specimen trees and avenues and the surrounding villages, farms, parkland and woodland.

Due to its location at the foot of the Cotswold escarpment, Stanway has been protected from many changes of the 20th century, although the last decade has seen the gradual restoration to its former glory of the 18th century water garden. These include a formal Canal on a terrace above the house, the Cascade (the longest in England), the striking Pyramid and eight ponds, and a single-jet fountain - the highest gravity fountain in the entire world, with all its valves open can reach a height of 300 feet. Inside Stanway House the principal rooms are in a long south-facing range forming an L-shape with the hall, unlike the usual Tudor house plan of a central hall.
