The Castle collection includes tapestries, furniture, ceramics and paintings. Here is a small selection of objects you can see when you visit.
In most of the State Rooms the shutters and curtains are closed. This ensures that the fragile contents in the rooms are protected from direct sunlight. The sun's rays will fade fabrics very quickly, as well as damaging delicate woodwork. The electric lighting used in the rooms helps to create an intimate and more home-like atmosphere.
There is a lot to see in each room and the Castle guides will always aim to answer any questions you have about the objects on show.
We are unable to allow photography in the building, but a well illustrated guide book, complete with the history of the family and the estate is available to purchase in the gift shop.
