The eccentric Earl of Bristol created this equally eccentric house, with its central rotunda and curved corridors, in 1795 to display his collections. These include spectacular paintings by Titian, Gainsborough and Velasquez and a magnificent Georgian silver collection. The house is surrounded by an Italianate garden and set in a ’Capability’ Brown park with woodland walks, deer enclosure, vineyard, Georgian summer-house, church, canal and lake.
