Exhibition brings to life the glorious past of Dorset's country houses

Event: To the Manor Born - The Country Houses of Edwardian Dorset
Date: October 10th until December 5th

Visitors to the Dorset County Museum will be able to get a taste for life as a turn-of-the-century aristocrat.

A new exhibition at the repository is celebrating stately homes of the Edwardian era.

It will feature vintage photography by Charles Cornish-Brown as well as costumes, paintings and antique furniture from the period.

Dorset's County Museum also has permanent collections covering the county's history, archaeology and culture, housed in a charming Victorian building in the town of Dorchester.

This exhibition would be an ideal trip for guests staying in Summer Lodge Country House Hotel, Restaurant and Spa, which offers a range of luxury suites, located in the village of Evershot just 12 miles away.

Summer Lodge Hotel is itself a stunning example of a Dorset country house, set in four acres of picturesque countryside.

Guests at the luxury Dorset hotel can benefit from a 3 Nights for the Price of 2 special offer, available on a range of the Summer Lodge's rooms and suites.
