This week Michael Newman visits one of the most extraordinary houses in the south west. In 1790 two determined and inspired spinsters conceived and built A La Ronde which, as the name implies, is an almost circular building. More unusual than that is the tradition of the house passing in an almost unbroken female line of descent.
The decorations, antiques and heirlooms reflect a decidedly feminine outlook. Director MIKE BOW
