Dewstow House, Neoclassical villa in Caerwent, Wales.
The three-bay country house features a simple two-story design with symmetrical windows overlooking the Severn Estuary from its elevated position.
The property gained recognition when Henry Roger Keane Oakley, a director of the Great Western Railway, acquired the estate in 1893 and developed its gardens.
The gardens incorporate Victorian engineering with natural elements through a network of underground chambers, tunnels, and grottoes created by James Pulham & Son.
The Grade II listed building includes extensive parking facilities and served as a center for breeding Shire horses during the early twentieth century.
The property contains underground passages with artificial rock formations and stalactites, connecting to hidden glasshouses that housed tropical plants and ferns.
