Sudbury Hall
Sudbury Hall in Derbyshire is a richly decorated late 17th-century mansion, its long-gallery and state rooms adorned with some of the finest Restoration-era craftsmanship in England — exquisite wood carvings, painted ceilings and intricate plasterwork. The house also contains the National Trust's Museum of Childhood, an imaginative and affectionate exploration of childhood through the centuries. Set beside a tranquil lake, the grounds make for a lovely day out.
