You learn to appreciate gardening here: the park around Mount Stewart House looks slightly overgrown, wonderfully randomly grown and seems somewhat neglected and untidy with subtle art between the unobtrusive flowers and colors. Of course, nothing here is natural and nothing is random, but it is incredibly beautiful to look at.

The magnificent green area is divided into 17 different areas and covers the entire range of horticultural art from strictly formal Italian gardens to landscape parks based on the English model. Very unusual are the many statues showing dinosaurs, mermaids and animals.
