Approached across parkland along a tree-lined drive from a lodge to the north, the house sits in a landscape of approximately 132 hectares (330 acres) of parkland, woodland and farmland part way down a south facing greensand slope overlooking the valley of the River Beult.
Although now simplified without the intensive planting used in earlier centuries, elements remain of the formal gardens designed by John Claudius Loudon in 1825 that were previously arranged on the north, south-east, south and west sides of the house.

Immediately to the south of the house is a wide 100-metre (330 ft) long terrace with a stone balustrade.
From the centre of this, aligned with the central portico of the house, stone steps descend in three flights over grass covered terraces to an oval lawn around the perimeter of which runs a gravel path and from which paths run to the east and west.
In the centre of the lawn is a sundial.
A wide lawn to the south-east of the house is ringed by paths and divided by another on a north-south access.
This is interrupted by flights of steps and a fountain pond.
Two small temples are positioned amongst trees part way down the slope.

To the west of the house Loudon laid out a flower garden.
Later in the 1860s this was replanted with roses, but it is now lawns.
At the south end of a walkway through this section of the garden is a water and rock garden known as "Jacobs Well".
From the north end of the walk an avenue of giant sequoias planted in 1864 runs north-west towards the parish church of St Nicholas.
Other Giant Sequoia are planted around the gardens.
Close to the church, at the end of a paved walk is a small Gothic folly designed by Richard Bentley.
South of the avenue is a grass amphitheatre cut into the slope.
The southern perimeter of the formal garden is formed by a Ha-Ha.
To the south, beyond the formal gardens, the steepness of the slope reduces and the estate continues as open parkland with a tree-fringed lake about 500 metres (1,600 ft) south of the house.

The gardens and parkland are listed Grade II*, with a number of features in the garden also individually listed for their group value with the house and park.
The north lodge, the steps to the south of the house, the sundial on the oval lawn and the folly are all listed Grade II.

The estate is private property and is not open to the public, but the Greensand Way long distance walk crosses the parkland east-west to the north of the house and a public footpath crosses the southern parkland close to the lake on a similar alignment.
