Set in a magnificent 121-hectare (300-acre) deer park, this Georgian house tells the story of the owners and servants who lived here. Discover the salacious scandals of the 7th Earl of Stamford, who married a former bareback circus rider, and the 2nd Earl of Warrington, who was so enamoured with his wife that he wrote a book anonymously on the desirability of divorce! Uncover these and other fascinating stories when you explore this treasure-packed house, then take a stroll in one of the North's great gardens
