Stourhead House is open ✨

From Friday 8 March, the 18th-century Palladian mansion will be open to visitors and will be celebrating 300 years since Stourhead became a home. 🏡

The re-opening intentionally shares its date with International Women’s Day, as the 300 years of Stourhead celebration will focus on the women who have influenced the history of the great house. 🖼

Visitors will be able to explore a new exhibition focusing on the lives of the women who live at Stourhead and the female makers and creators who helped turn the grand Country House into a home. 🤝

🌹 Happy Valentine's Day! 🌹

🤔 Did you know? Love found its way to the stunning grounds of Stourhead, specifically under the Temple of Apollo, in the iconic 2005 film adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. Mr Darcy, portrayed by the charismatic Matthew Macfadyen, iconically declared his love for Elizabeth Bennet with the immortal words, "I love you, most ardently." and proposed marriage.

Let's take a moment to appreciate the breathtaking beauty of Stourhead, which provided the perfect backdrop for this timeless romantic moment.
