Knole House, Manor house in Sevenoaks, Kent, England
The substantial English country residence spans four acres and features over one hundred rooms arranged around two primary courtyards with grand gatehouses.
Thomas Bourchier, Archbishop of Canterbury, purchased the estate in 1456 and transformed the medieval structure into a residence similar to Oxford college buildings.
The state rooms contain the largest collection of royal Stuart furniture in England, including pieces from the reign of William and Mary.
The National Trust maintains this Grade I listed building, allowing visitors to explore selected rooms, the deer park, and gardens throughout specific seasons.
The residence features a room named after dancer Giannetta Baccelli, with her nude sculpture displayed at the base of the Jacobean Great Staircase.
