Athelhampton House is one of the finest fifteenth century houses in England and is bursting with fantastic history. There are various magnificent rooms within the house, including The Great Chamber, The King's Room and a stunning dining room. The gardens are Grade I and are full of variety, offering beautiful flowers & plants and also the wonderfully charming Pyramid shaped Yew trees. There is a lovely Octagonal Pond, which leads you through the gardens to the River Piddle, which forms a natural boundary. With so much beauty to look at, you will not be disappointed.
