reseña:
"These is nothing quite like the English contry house anywhere else in the world. France has her chateaux, Italy her historic villas, Spain her gardens like Generalife hooked on to the hillside, Germany her robber castles, but the exact equivalente of what we mean by English country house is not to be found elsewhere... the house is essentially part of the country, not only in the country, but part of it, a natural growth. Irrespective of grandeur or modesty, it should agree with its landscape and suggest the life of its inhabitants past or present; should never overwhelm its sorroundings. The peculiar genius of th English country house lies in its knack of fitting in."
