No ordinary stately home, but a fascinating mixture of splendour - and decay - a unique chance to see some eccentric collections and a great house in a state of decline. Walled garden, pleasure ground, historic landscaped park, church, restaurant and shop.
Celebrating our 300th anniversary in 2004.
