Montacute House and Garden
| Published: 31st May 2008 21:15 |
Visit the National portrait Gallery's must-see Tudor and Stuart collection. This Elizabeth mansion is adorned with elegant chimneys and carved parapets and there's a fantastic display of tapestries and samplers from the Goodhart collection. Enjoy formal gardens with some very unusual topiary and a circular parkland walk.
Fun filled trails, activity packs and regular 'Hidden in History' customed performances.
Have a read about 'The House' and would you believe it...the hedge that's not so clean-cut is not done by a gardener!
Did you know?...Montacute featured in the award winning film Sense and Sensibility.
