Dudmaston Estate
Recommended by
Overview
Enchanted wooded parkland, sweeping gardens and a house with a surprise, Dudmaston is the family home of Mr and Mrs Mark Hamilton-Russell, and is something unexpected in the Shropshire countryside. A much loved home for over 875 years, you will find the family rooms scattered with photos and perhaps an odd pair of shoes or two peeping out from under a table. The unexpected galleries create a total contrast, with their formal, crisp lines. They were designed by the last owner, Rachel, Lady Labouchere, to house her and her husband’s differing modern and traditional collections of art. The gardens provide amazing vistas while the orchard is a great place to relax and for the children to let off steam. For more stunning views and nature head to Big Pool and Dingle woods. Find out what’s in season in our Kitchen Garden and try it for yourself in the tea-room.

About the area
Perhaps nowhere else in England will you find a county so deeply rural and with so much variety as Shropshire. Choose a clear day, climb to the top of The Wrekin, and look down on that ‘land of lost content’ so wistfully evoked by A E Housman.
