The contents of the property are being sold by the former owners of the important country house which has now been purchased by the national trust. Munstead Wood is a Grade I listed house and gardens in Godalming Surrey. The garden was created by garden designer Gertrude Jekyll and became very well-known through her designs, and her books and articles in magazines such as Country Life. The Arts and Crafts style house was built for Jekyll and she lived there until 1932, Munstead Wood was designed by the architect Edwin Lutyens to compliment the garden with Jekylls influence on the original design. Munstead Wood was the first, and perhaps therefore the most important, collaboration between Jekyll and Lutyens in garden and house design. These collaborations number around 120, with other well-known examples including Deanery Garden in Berkshire and Hestercombe House in Somerset. Jekyll transformed the site over the years, first meeting Lutyens at Munstead Wood in 1889 when the collaboration began, and she lived there until her death in 1932. Prior to the sale to the National Trust, Munstead Wood was the vendors family home for more than 50 years, the owners over this time were Sir Robert Clark and Lady Clark who were responsible for the house and gardens regeneration to return it to its original concept.
