Newlands Manor restored to former glory

A recent article in the Daily Mail has reported that an impressive semi-detached section of the Grade II listed Newlands Manor is for sale for a princely sum of £3m.

The article explains that Newlands Manor, which until recently had been private flats, has now been fully restored to its former glory.

The grand gothic manor house was once the home of William Cornwallis-West and his flamboyant wife Patsy, who had been a mistress of Edward VII when he was Prince of Wales. They were known to have hosted lavish parties attended by Kaiser Wilhelm II and many other members of the aristocracy during 19th century. 

The property was built in the early 1800's for Admiral William Cornwallis, naval captain and friend of Lord Nelson. The manor house is constructed in the Strawberry Hill Gothic architecture style, with buttresses and a castellated parapet.

The property is in the village of Everton, close to Milford on Sea. The house sits at the end of a a long driveway with an ornamental water fountain, and set in an estate of 3.5 acres with private gardens, a swimming pool, an ornamental lake, surrounded by woodland and parkland.
