Knebworth House, Tudor manor in North Hertfordshire, England
The red-brick Tudor Gothic mansion features extensive formal gardens, parklands, and distinctive architectural elements across its 250-acre grounds.
Since 1490, Knebworth House has belonged to the Lytton family, with significant architectural modifications made between 1843 and 1845 by Henry Edward Kendall Jr.
Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, who resided at Knebworth House, introduced literary phrases like 'the pen is mightier than the sword' into English language.
Visitors can explore the house, gardens, adventure playground, and dinosaur trail through guided tours available from spring through autumn.
The Victorian Watchman's Tower, unused since 1950, now offers visitors access to panoramic views of the Hertfordshire countryside.
