Clandon Park is a grand Palladian mansion, built in about 1730 by the Venetian architect Giacomo Leoni, and notable for its magnificent two-storied Marble Hall. The house is filled with the superb collection of 18th century furniture, porcelain, textiles and carpets acquired in the 1920s by the connoisseur Mrs. David Gubbay, and also contains the Ivo Forde Meissen collection of Italian comedy figures and a series of Mortlake tapestries. The attractive gardens contain a parterre, grotto, sunken Dutch garden and a Maori house with a fascinating history.
