A neo-classical masterpiece, the beauty of its exterior architecture is matched by the opulence of its interior. The house was designed by James Wyatt and completed in 1798 for the first Earl of Belmore. Some of the leading craftsmen of the 18th century worked on its interior. Magnificent staterooms with their sumptuous furnishings include the State Bedroom prepared for a visit by George IV in 1821. The nearby servants` tunnel, stable yard and ice house are set within a stunning landscape park, which is ideal for long, peaceful walks.
