BERRINGTON HALL, nr Leominster Herefordshire HR6 0DW

Beautifully set above a wide valley with sweeping views to the Brecon Beacons, this elegant Henry Holland house was built in the late 18th century and is set in parkland designed by 'Capability' Brown. The rather austere external appearance belies a surprisingly delicate interior, with beautifully decorated ceilings and a spectacular staircase hall. There are good collections of furniture and paintings, as well as a nursery, Victorian laundry, Georgian dairy and an attractive garden. The walled garden contains an historic collection of local apple trees
