Wotton House, Country house hotel and wedding venue in Dorking, England.

The estate features Italian gardens with Roman temples, surrounded by 13 acres of countryside in the North Downs of Surrey.

The Domesday Book of 1086 listed Wotton House as a manor, which later became the residence of George Evelyn in 1579 through gunpowder manufacturing profits.

John Evelyn, born in 1620, established England's first Italian garden in 1652, incorporating his knowledge of botany and arboriculture into the estate design.

Located 10 minutes from Junction 9 of the M25 and 30 minutes from Gatwick Airport, the hotel provides indoor pool, sauna, gym and seasonal dining.

During World War II, the property served as a base for the Canadian Army until 1945, and now houses original 17th-century garden mosaics.
