Barrington Court

An atmospheric fragment of old Somerset; the estate is the vision of Colonel Lyle and his architect James Edwin Forbes. Whilst Court and Strode House remain closed for repair, there are glorious garden rooms, avenues, and orchards to explore. Interactive installations in the farm buildings tell the stories of key characters and the development of the estate. Currently open weekends only until Saturday 9 March 2024.
