Painswick House, Georgian country house in Painswick, England
Painswick House features a classical nine-bay limestone facade with an Ionic porch and pediment at its central entrance point.
Charles Hyett commissioned the construction of Painswick House in 1737 to escape Gloucester's pollution but passed away shortly after moving into the residence.
The estate includes multiple garden buildings, water features, and architectural elements that represent the Georgian period's approach to landscape and structural design.
Visitors can access the property via train to Stroud station, located five miles away, or use the free parking facilities at the estate.
The Painswick Rococo Garden contains the Galanthus 'Atkinsii' snowdrop variety and remains the only complete rococo garden open to the public in England.
