The house you can see in the park is Philipps House. The house nestles in the steep wooded banks behind it and looks out over the expansive parkland. It’s separated from the park by a special deer fence called a ha-ha which allows uninterrupted views across the park and stops deer and cattle from into the garden. The house was designed by Jeffry Wyatville in a Georgian style with Greek-inspired columns supporting the large portico front. It was named Dinton House after the park for the Wyndham family. It was later renamed to Philipps House when it was sold to Bertram Philipps. In 2023 a 25-year lease of the house was conditionally sold for £2m. https://www.struttandparker.com/properties/st-marys-road-6

On the site of an older house, Philipps House in Dinton Park is a neo-Grecian mansion built in the early 1800s. A grade II-listen property, the house is named for a subsequent owner, Bertram Philipps and is constructed from local Chilmark Stone. Once used by the YWCA as an artists retreat, you can now visit the park, which is under the management of the National Trust.
