An elegant 18th century mansion with regancy interiors and deer park, Attingham Park is of the great houses of the midlands.
Attingham Park was built for the 1st Lord Berwick and designed by George Steuart in 1782 with a picture gallery and dramatic staircase added in 1805 by John Nash. For a taste of Regency luxury the drawing room with a suite of white/gold furniture and blue silk curtains must be seen. The dining room chairs are also Regency and this room is painted red with gold accents and has a carpet designed to complement the fine plastered ceiling.
