Knightshayes Court was designed by William Burges and is a good example of his work. The house is full of quirks and curiosities.

The grounds and gardens, mainly designed by Edward Kemp, have much to offer.  They include a walled kitchen garden, the Paved garden, Formal Garden, Pool Garden, Garden in the woods,  Michael's wood, the English woodland walk, the Arboretum, Sir John's wood...

Since 1973, Knightshayes Court is in the hands of the National Trust.
