Cholmondeley Castle, Gothic country house and gardens in Cholmondeley, England.

The castle stands at the center of a 70-acre estate with formal gardens, including the Temple Garden, Lily Pool Garden, and Silver Garden.

Built between 1801 and 1805 for George Cholmondeley by architect William Turner, the structure replaced a medieval timber-framed hall.

The gardens display more than 800 rose varieties in two connected Rose Rooms, representing centuries of English horticultural traditions.

The castle remains closed to public access, but visitors can explore the gardens from March to October, with tea rooms available.

During World War II, the estate transformed into a military facility, housing Czech troops and operating as a naval hospital.
