Blue Jay is accessed via a 100 metre long private tree-lined driveway. Security and alarm systems have been installed with external CCTV and flood lighting. The 3 metre high, 17th-century walls were designed by architect Sir John Vanbrugh, who built Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire and Castle Howard in North Yorkshire, two of the most significant historical country houses in England. Just 19 miles from Central London, Blue Jay is set within an acre of walled gardens, land that was formally part of Claremont House Gardens, a Royal residence designed by Sir John Vanbrugh and occupied by King George III and Queen Victoria in the late nineteenth century. The estate was once owned by Robert Clive, founder of Britain’s Indian Empire, before it passed into Royal hands. Queen Victoria was a frequent visitor to Claremont both as a child and later as an adult, when she bought the house and its grounds. Prince Albert, Queen Victoria’s consort, was reputed to have sat in the alcoves of the historic walls surrounding Blue Jay eating tropical fruit. Many of the great names in garden history, played a part in the creation and development of Claremont Park. Over the years Sir John Vanbrugh, Charles Bridgeman, William Kent and ‘Capability’ Brown all put their own distinctive stamp on the pleasure grounds, which in 1726 were described as “the noblest of any in Europe”.
