Holham Hall or Wells-next-the-Sea

Holkham Hall

 

The Hall:

Nestled within 25,000 acres of rolling parkland, Holkham Hall is an 18th-century Palladian style country house,

based on designs by William Kent and built by Thomas Coke, 1st Earl of Leicester. The current Earl and his family take great

pride in opening their doors and sharing the treasures within. You’ll find the Marble Hall a truly breath-taking introduction to your visit,

with its impressive 50ft dome ceiling and elegant walls of English alabaster – not marble as the name suggests!

A grand staircase leads to a myriad of state rooms, from the Saloon with its rich, red velvet-lined walls, gilded coffering, and lofty ceiling;

to many sumptuous bedchambers where royalty once lay; state dining rooms adorned with exquisite porcelain;

galleries of statuary and art by the Old Masters; libraries bursting with books and manuscripts; and of course,

the Old Kitchen with its rows of polished copper pots, pans and moulds.

This stately home has remained largely unchanged since the late-18th century, and much of what you will see is as Thomas Coke intended.

Each generation has left a little something of themselves in the house, right up to the present day.

 

The Walled Garden:

Within the walls of our six-acre Walled Garden, you’ll discover a spectacular stand of Georgian and Victorian greenhouses and vineries,

a formal ornamental garden, an established vineyard, a working kitchen garden that yields a plentiful crop feeding both the Coke family

inside the Hall and visitors to The Victoria, the exotic garden with its large lawn, and lastly, the cutting garden with its beautiful array of blooms.

All of these make our Walled Garden a popular garden to visit in Norfolk.
