Erddig
Atmospheric house, featuring 485-hectare (1,200-acre) country park and formal walled garden
Widely acclaimed as one of Britain's finest historic houses, Erddig is a fascinating yet unpretentious early 18th-century country house reflecting the upstairs downstairs life of a gentry family over 250 years.
The extensive downstairs area contains Erddig's unique collection of servants' portraits, while the upstairs rooms are an amazing treasure trove of fine furniture, textiles and wallpapers.
Outside, an impressive range of outbuildings includes stables, smithy, joiners' shop and sawmill.
The setting is a superb 18th-century formal garden and romantic landscape park.
