Jacobean-style house with gardens and a working watermill
Discover the small yet significant collection of paintings by John Constable at Anglesey Abbey through our new object trail, from 29 April 2022. Enjoy some of Constable’s more unusual works, from early Suffolk landscapes to a late watercolour.
A passion for tradition and impressing guests inspired one man to transform a run-down country house and desolate landscape.
At the age of 30, the future Lord Fairhaven began to create his first home. Wanting to inspire and surprise visitors, he created a spectacular garden with planting for all seasons and a cosy house in which to entertain. Life revolved around horse racing and shooting, and guests enjoyed 1930s luxury.
Inside: fine furnishings, books, paintings, silver and rare clocks give a feeling of opulence.
Outside: 46 hectares (114 acres) offer vibrant colour, delicious scents and the simple pleasures of nature.
