Whatever your architectural tastes, you'll find something to enjoy at Holme Pierrepont Hall. Look for the 15th century timber roof, and a superb Tudor entrance with three story towers. The interiors are largely 17th and 18th century, and the north wing is a Victorian restoration. A long gallery overlooks the garden in the former courtyard.
