Haddon Hall is my favourite place in the world. It is like stepping into another world of pure history. Moreover, they keep discovering more history there, with the discovery of the King John wall in the last few years. The whole place is wonderfully preserved without the feeling as though everything has been made new. One of my favourite parts is a set of stairs that are worn down in the middle after hundreds of years of use. It's very hands on as well. In addition, the setting is stunning, high up on a hill with the river down below and bridge. To me it is perfection.

Selected: Kentwell Hall

Kentwell Hall is one of England's finest moated Tudor houses, described by Country Life as "The epitome of many people's image of an Elizabethan House". It was built and enhanced by successive members of the Clopton family in the first half of the 16th Century on riches derived from the wool trade (John Clopton also had the magnificent Long Melford Parish Church built), the exterior of the building has remained mainly unchanged since.
