Légende
St. Clare, Isle of Wight, 1862. 'After the marriage of Princess Alice with Prince Louis of Hesse the Royal bride and bridegroom retired to St. Clare, at Spring Vale, the residence of Colonel and Lady Katherine Vernon Harcourt...[It was] selected by the Queen for the honeymoon of the Prince and Princess... on account of [its] beautiful situation... The Tudor style of Gothic predominates in this castellated mansion, the grounds of which are laid out in the most approved modern style. A view of no common beauty from the keep-tower completes the attraction of this delightful seat...The stay of their Royal Highnesses was brief at St. Clare, as on Friday last they returned to Osborne. It is stated that the Prince and Princess intend to reside at Frogmore, and Clarence House, St. James's, which the Queen has placed at their disposal'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
