Kedleston Hall is a breathtaking neo-classical house set in
landscaped parkland. The house was built between 1759 and
1765 for Sir Nathaniel Curzon to house his collection of fine
paintings and furniture and has the most complete and unaltered
examples of Robert Adam interiors in England. In the 18th Century, the housekeeper, Mrs
Garnett, shows you around and her likeness welcomes you to the
property with regular presentations in the huge Marble
Hall.
Spectacular 18th-century mansion with Adam interiors and
parkland. Take a trip back in time to the 1760s at this
spectacular Neo-classical mansion framed by historic
parkland. Designed for lavish entertaining and displaying an
extensive collection of paintings, sculpture and original
furnishings, Kedleston is a stunning example of the work of
architect Robert Adam.
The Curzon family have lived here since the 12th-century and
continue to live at the Hall. Lord Curzon's Eastern Museum is a
treasure trove of fascinating objects acquired on his travels in
Asia and while Viceroy of India (1899 to 1905). The Hall was
used as a key location for 'The Duchess', the recent Hollywood
blockbuster.
