A house of surprising contrasts, Felbrigg was built both before and after the English Civil War, and behind the sumptuous Stuart architecture lies a fascinating history. In the 19th century Felbrigg was almost lost to the shopping sprees of rackety `mad Windham`, but was rescued when it passed to the Ketton-Cremer family in 1923, who restored it to its former glory. Explore the imposing Georgian Drawing Room and Gothic-style library, then investigate the kitchen, with its collection fo beautiful kitchen implements and shining array of copperware. Outside, Felbrigg is a gardener`s delight, with a decorative and productive walled garden, Victorian pleasure garden and rolling landscape park - with a lake and 200 hectares ( 520 acres) of woods to walk through on waymarked trails.
