Whatton House

The house was originally built in 1802 for Edward Dawson, in an English country garden in the heart of Leicestershire. Although, after a devastating fire and reconstruction of the house, it is now private to the family of the Crawshaws and not open to the public. However, the gardens are available to explore and are a sight to see! The beautiful garden was built in the late 19th century by the wife of the first Lord Crawshaw. She designed 15 acres of mixed woodland, garden areas and trails leading through shaded trees and a shaded location.
