Plan Your Visit

Peter Thorogood, author, composer and historian, and Curator Roger Linton, conservator, designer and landscape gardener, welcome you to their family home. Together with other members of their family, they saved St Mary's from semi-dereliction in 1984 and have brought the house and gardens to their present splendour. They were jointly awarded the MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours for services to conservation and the arts.

What our visitors say:  "Intimate feeling exuded by this lived-in abode; the love and care shows."   "Turning every corner was a surprise."   "A little gem of a place... gardens gorgeous."   "Beautiful house and very informative story of its journey through the ages."   "We have never received such wonderful hospitality and friendly welcome."
