They have got top reviews on Trip Advisor
If you want to visit a historic house but want to avoid the tourist crowds, a new study has revealed the lesser-known places in the UK that boast the best reviews. According to the research, Holme Pierrepont Hall is the UK's fourth most historic hidden gem.
At other times of the year the house is busy with weddings, although the gardens opened up earlier this month for special events including a car rally and outdoor Shakespeare production. Holme Pierrepont Hall was the second home of the Pierrepont family, whose principle seat was Thoresby Hall, and because of that wasn't extended like some country homes. Mr Brackenbury added: "What makes it interesting is the fact we still exist. Many of these houses were rebuilt and rebuilt because the families that were living in them were trying to make them bigger and grander.
Another reviewer said: "We visited the house as part of the spring snowdrop opening. We loved being able to walk around the house alone. It's fascinating. Loved our visit."
