Details
With peeling paintwork and overgrown courtyards Calke Abbey tells the story of the dramatic decline of a country house estate. The house and stables are little restored, with many abandoned areas vividly portraying a period in the 20th century when numerous country houses did not survive to tell their story.
Opening details
House: 22 February - 1 November, Saturday - Wednesday 12.30pm to 17.00pm, Thursday and Friday Themed house visit 12.30pm - 16.30pm
