Chavenage House, Tudor country house in Beverston, England.
Chavenage House is a country residence built from local stone with multiple connected wings and tall sash windows throughout. The main building features characteristic 16th-century design with a steeply pitched slate roof and a family chapel set within the grounds.
The house was established in 1576 and later played a role during the English Civil War when its owner sided with parliamentary forces. This political alignment made the property a place of consequence during the conflict between crown and parliament.
The house displays furnishings and artworks collected across generations, including ornate Renaissance fireplaces and stained glass windows. Visitors can observe how the family lived and what objects they valued enough to keep.
Access to the house is by guided tour only and advance booking is necessary to arrange a visit. Comfortable shoes are recommended as you will navigate multiple rooms and levels throughout the interior.
The grounds contain a 17th-century tower built purely for decoration and visual interest within the surrounding gardens. This folly stands as a curious reminder of how wealthy households once adorned their estates with whimsical structures.
