Event: Athelhampton House And Garden day out
When: throughout the year
Athelhampton House and Garden is one of the finest 15th century houses in England and a location that people visiting the south-west may be interested in exploring.
Just 30 minutes away from luxury Dorset hotel the Summer Lodge Country House Hotel, Restaurant and Spa, the manor house offers a great day out thanks to its rich collection of furniture, art and heraldic glass dating back hundreds of years.
Built in 1485, the property, which boasts hundreds of acres of gardens that have been in private ownership for more than 500 years, is licensed to hold civil wedding ceremonies.
The attraction's grandeur has seen it used as a film location and last year hosted two-time Oscar winner Maggie Smith and BAFTA nominated Timothy Spall during the filming of From Time to Time.
Until December 31st 2009, guests of the Summer Lodge can get even more value from their stay thanks to the three nights for the price of two package.
