Craig Mar, Hebden, North Yorkshire, BD23 5EB

Craigmar was conceived and built in 1928 by a prominent local family involved in many of the village's 20th-century developments.

The house was inspired by a villa on Lake Geneva, featuring a unique Mediterranean aesthetic with a distinctive roofline designed to take advantage of the dramatic scenery.

Creating this brave modern house in its Yorkshire Dales setting allowed the garden layout to be engineered to master the sloping site, creating a tiered effect reminiscent of Swiss or Italian lakeside villas.

The grounds-designed by the famous Backhouse of York-with their signature terraced rock gardens and trees, have matured to create a year-round display and wildlife habitat.
