Hylands House and Estate
Review by Beccy

Hylands House is set in 574 acres of historic landscaped parkland. Following five phases of restoration, visitors can now enjoy spectacular rooms throughout the House, ranging from the exquisitely gilded Drawing Room to the sumptuously ornate Banqueting Room. The magnificent Grand Staircase has been fully restored to its former glory, and the Repton Room on the first floor provides stunning views over the landscaped parkland.

Comments: "This is a place for 'a particular kind of research' as the secretary firmly informed me and as such not to be considered a library. Great if you want to look up the history of a piece of land or your family lineage, not so great if you’re just looking for something to kill a few hours."
