Ston Easton,
Somerset, Somerset (BA3 4DF)
A superb Palladian mansion set in one of the West Country’s most romantic estates, Ston Easton Park exudes elegance, warmth and comfort. Log fires burn, comfortable antique furniture and exquisite paintings beckon, evoking memories of a more leisured age and providing a welcome you might associate with a magnificent private country house. There is little that can compare with the well preserved classicism of Ston Easton Park. The Library and the magnificent State Rooms are always greatly appreciated by guests, including one of England’s earliest surviving Print Rooms with its reminders of the grand tours undertaken in the 18th Century. The Palladian Saloon has been described as ‘one of the finest rooms in Somerset’ and for luxury accommodation near Bath or Wells, Ston Easton Park cannot be equalled. Guests often delight in going ‘below stairs’ to the Edwardian Kitchen, still preserved as it was in its Georgian heyday, complete with sparkling copper pans and cooking facilities of the period. Set in the idyllic surroundings of the Mendip Hills, the house is surrounded by thirty six acres of classic parkland, the stunning Victorian kitchen garden which produces much of the organic produce served in the restaurant, and the cascading River Norr. Our house spaniel, Sweep will be delighted to take you on a guided tour and you may be fortunate enough to encounter the resident deer along the way. Situated just 11 miles from the historic city of Bath and 15 minutes from Wells, the smallest city in England, Ston Easton Park is an ideal base for touring the West Country. A variety of activities can be arranged locally including a challenging round of golf. Farrington Golf and Country Club is located adjacent to Ston Easton Park and features an 18 hole championship course as well as a 9 hole course and a driving range.
