Harewood House

With interiors by Adam and landscaped grounds by Capability Brown, this 18th-century Palladian-style country house is a treasure trove of classical design, fine art and furnishings. Wherever you look, you sill see furniture by Chippendale, the finest Chinese and Sevres porcelain and hang paintings by Gainsborough and Turner. Within the 1000 acres of gardens there is a bird sanctuary and an adventure playground of truly gargantuan proportions. The Stables Courtyard offers a variety of refreshments and handcrafted gifts. Opening times and dates are seasonal - phone for details. Rates are increased on weekends, bank holidays, and public holidays. If you arrive by bus or bicycle, you get in at half the price.
