Stokesay Court
Recommended by
Overview
Still very much a lived-in, private home, Stokesay Court is a magnificent late Victorian mansion set within extensive grounds in rolling south Shropshire countryside. During the First World War Stokesay Court played an important role as an auxiliary military hospital, and the rooms and displays form part of a tour which bring this history to life. Unspoilt and secluded Stokesay shot to fame as a primary location for the film adaptation of Ian McEwan's novel Atonement. In addition to pre-booked house tours the grounds are also open on selected dates for special events with the Old Kitchen serving delicious teas. See website for tour and event dates.

About the area
Perhaps nowhere else in England will you find a county so deeply rural and with so much variety as Shropshire. Choose a clear day, climb to the top of The Wrekin, and look down on that ‘land of lost content’ so wistfully evoked by A E Housman.
