The gardens of Stourhead are one of the most famous English landscape gardens of the 18th century and for me one of the most beautiful I have seen so far. The centerpiece is a large, artificially created lake, around which winding paths, temples, bridges, grottoes, and rare trees extend. The layout was designed so that new picturesque views open up at every turn.

Lovely place for a picnic whilst on my walk but it was a teeny bit rainy. I am sure the view is awesome if it is clear.

Lovely view of the lake, especially at sunset.

Stourhead opened in the 1740s as a landscape garden and living work of art. At its centre is a lake surrounded by mythical temples, grottos and wonderful specimen trees. It's now managed by the National Trust and paid entry other than the footpaths which run across the estate.
