Exp

lore the preserved stables, including the Stable Boys’ bedroom, for a glimpse into the estate life, and marvel at the skeleton of a whale that inspired Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick. Stroll through our Capability Brown-designed parkland, with walking trails that meander through ancient grounds, past serene lakes, and open grasslands where wildlife flourishes.

Last night we welcomed Folksy Theatre to Burton Constable for A Midsummer Night’s Dream on the Orangery Lawn 🎭

It was a fantastic evening of open-air theatre, with live music, plenty of laughs and a great crowd. We started in the warm evening sunshine and finished under the night sky - although a few blankets definitely made an appearance as the temperature dropped!

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Folksy Theatre for a brilliant performance.
