Clumber Chapel was built between 1886 and 1889 and its 180 foot spire provides the backdrop to many a photograph. Whether you want a place for quiet contemplation or to marvel at the magnificent Victorian craftsmanship, the Chapel is a must for any first-time visitor.

At nearly 3 miles long and over 170 years old, Limetree Avenue is the longest in Europe and still provides the majestic feel of entering a grand ducal estate.

The Victorian interest in collecting exotic plants, such as rhododendron and mock orange shrubs, has added a splash of colour and fragrance to the elegant meander along the recently restored paths in the Pleasure Ground. This area was designed in the 18th century to offer the Dukes and their families secluded and beautiful walks.
