Houghton Hall Stately Homes in Kings Lynn, Norfolk, England


Magnificent stateley home of Sir Robert Walpole, first British Prime Minister

One of the grandest survivors of the Palladian era, Houghton was built in the 1720s by Britain's first Prime Minister, Sir Robert Walpole. A magnificent showcase of craftsman and painters of an elegant age, Houghton retains most of its original furnishings. The widely acclaimed 5 acre walled garden is divided into "Garden rooms" including a spectacular double sided herbaceous border, formal rose garden with over 150 varieties of English Rose. The Hall sits at the centre of a vibrant 4500 acre estate, including the 450 acre Deer Park, home to a spectacular herd of white fallow deer and smaller groups of exotic deer. In the stables there is a restaurant and gift shop as well as a model soldier museum, with one of the largest and most comprehensive collections in the world, with over 20,000 models displayed in various battle formations.
