Built in 1732 to a James Gibbs design, Kelmarsh Hall is surrounded by its working estate, grazed parklands and beautiful gardens. Over the years successive owners and influences have left their imprint on the Palladian style house and the gardens; none more so than Nancy Lancaster who decorated the rooms in the manor that has become known as the English country house style.
