Romantic 17th-Century Italian Mansion Ruins with Landscaped Gardens

Once a symbol of opulence and grandeur during the Victorian era, this 17th-century Italian mansion now stands as a hauntingly beautiful ruin. Remodelled by renowned architect Samuel Daukes in the mid-19th century, the interiors were tragically destroyed by fire in 1937, yet the structure remains impressively intact. Surrounded by meticulously landscaped gardens and grand fountains, which operate daily, the site offers a unique and picturesque setting for filming, photo shoots, and unique event venue. With no interior spaces remaining, the vast ruins provide a dramatic backdrop, while the intricately designed gardens and wild woodland add to the romantic atmosphere. External events will require temporary structures, such as marquees. The grounds also feature a nature-inspired children's play area, complete with a treehouse and outdoor musical instruments.
