Intriguing Regency house and impressive horse-drawn vehicles
Arlington Court is an unexpected jewel: a complete family estate. The intimate Regency house contains treasures for all tastes, from model ships to shells, all collected by the Chichesters.
Offering incident and contrast, the 19th-century picturesque garden is a perfect place to explore, picnic or play. The walled kitchen garden provides fruit and vegetables for the tea-room and flowers for the house. The tranquil estate, abundant with wildlife, includes an ancient heronry.
The Carriage Museum in the stables has a vehicle for every occasion from cradle to grave. Our working horses keep the story alive.
