National Trust - Barrington Court
England, United Kingdom
National Trust - Barrington Court is a beautifully restored Tudor manor house from the 16th century in Somerset, England, near Ilminster, acquired by the National Trust in 1907 as one of its first major properties despite its dilapidated state at the time. Revived in the 1920s by Colonel Lyle through a 99-year lease, it features honey-colored Ham stone architecture, atmospheric empty rooms evoking past grandeur, and Gertrude Jekyll-inspired gardens with orchards, parkland, and a working kitchen garden perfect for exploration. Visitors enjoy imagining its history—from medieval owners to WWII evacuees—across the estate's farm buildings, tennis court, and trails, though the main house is currently closed for conservation work.
