The grounds were laid out in the 17th century by John Tradescant the Elder for Sir Dudley Digges, who built the present house.
Lancelot 'Capability' Brown was later called in to improve the park, and is credited with its ha-ha.
The gardens include a boating lake with a small island, an avenue of old trees and a Victorian greenhouse, and have been open to the public on Tuesdays in summer.
