Port Eliot, English country house and Grade I listed building in St Germans, Cornwall.
Port Eliot stands on 6,000 acres of land, featuring a grand main house with architectural elements dating from the 12th century through the 18th century.
Originally built as a priory, the estate underwent major transformations under Sir John Soane's direction in the 18th century, becoming the Eliot family's residence since 1565.
The property hosts guided tours through its rooms, which contain collections of paintings, furniture, and decorative arts spanning multiple centuries of British history.
The estate operates daily from 10 AM to 5 PM, offering garden access throughout the year and maintains a shop with local products and a café.
The grounds include a rare combination of a medieval priory church and a country house, connected through a sequence of architectural modifications over 900 years.
