Gossip: £11m mansion that was won over a game of cards

With its beautifully decorated hall, stunning array of rooms and 1,100 acres of land, this Tudor-style mansion built exactly 100 years ago is currently on the market for a cool £11m.

But legend has it the property fell into the hands of the current owner's family more than 140 years ago after it was won in a game of cards.

The current form of the mansion on the Hamptworth Lodge Estate, situated within the New Forest National Park, in Wiltshire, was designed by Tudor expert Harold Moffat between 1910 and 1913 after he inherited it in 1884.

The estate itself has been in the same family however since 1870, when it fell into the hands of the great-great uncle to the current owners.
