Mount Edgcumbe House, Tudor country house in Cremyll, England
The Mount Edgcumbe House spans across 865 acres of land on the Rame Peninsula, featuring gardens, woodlands, and formal landscapes overlooking Plymouth Sound.
The house, constructed between 1547 and 1553 by Sir Richard Edgcumbe, required extensive restoration after sustaining damage from German bombing in 1941.
The interiors display period furnishings and decorative elements from the 18th century, reflecting the lifestyle of the Earls of Mount Edgcumbe through generations.
Visitors can access the country park daily from 8 AM until dusk, while the main house opens for tours from April through September.
The estate contains Milton's Temple, dating from 1755, which features inscriptions from Paradise Lost and serves as a literary monument.
