Description
A remarkable survival of a George II mansion, complete with its original contents and set in an attractive landscape park. Robert Adam worked here on two occasions to create the magnificent staterooms.

There is exquisite plasterwork throughout and three rooms are decorated with the original Chinese wallpaper. The house contains fine period furniture, china and pictures, including many portraits by Reynolds and Angelica Kauffmann.

The superb 18th-century gardens contain an orangery, the Chapel Art Gallery and several follies, as well as beautiful shrubberies and imposing specimen trees.

Parker children’s dolls house and hands-on 18th-century-inspired activities for children.
