Hutton-in-the-forest, Eden (By D0c.Col)

Hutton-in-the-Forest sits quietly on the northern edge of the Lake District, surrounded by ancient woodland that once formed part of the royal Inglewood Forest. It’s one of the most historic country houses in Cumbria — and one of the few still lived in by the same family who’ve owned it for more than four centuries.

At the heart of Hutton lies a medieval pele tower, built around 1350 for defence during the turbulent border wars with Scotland. You can still see traces of that purpose in the arrow slits and thick stone walls. Over time, the fortress grew into a family home, as new wings were added in the Tudor, Jacobean, Georgian, and Victorian periods — each generation adding comfort and character rather than replacing what came before.

This gradual evolution makes Hutton almost a timeline of English domestic architecture in one building. The east front reflects the elegance of the 17th century, while the Gothic details on later sections come from a 19th-century redesign by Anthony Salvin, the same architect who worked on Alnwick Castle and parts of Windsor.

The gardens here are among the oldest in the north of England. The formal topiary yews, some over 300 years old, date back to the 17th century. The walled garden, first laid out in the 1730s, still produces fruit, vegetables, and flowers, much as it did centuries ago. Beyond it, the 18th-century parkland reflects the naturalistic tastes of the Georgian era, influenced by the style of Capability Brown.

Hutton’s setting still carries echoes of its medieval origins. The surrounding woods are remnants of the old royal hunting forest — home to oak and beech trees that have stood for hundreds of years.

I took off from the carpark as it was a quiet day, but the roadside is only about 50m further on. Refreshments and toilet facilities are on site as are places to sit and reflect.
