Duncombe Park, One of Yorkshire's finest stately homes

12:00am Tuesday 29th September 2009

Duncombe Park, which has been the home of the Duncombe family for over 250 years, is situated on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors and adjacent to the picturesque market town of Helmsley surrounded by over 300 acres of stunning grounds and parkland Today visitors comment on the 'grand yet homely' atmosphere. The family pictures and Lord Feversham's collection of English and Continental furniture are on show and the principal rooms remain a fine example of the type of 'grand interior' popular at the end of the 19th century.

Visitors may explore at their leisure the great lawn and level terraces, temples, yew tree walk, woodland walks and the scented 'secret garden' around the old conservatory or take a longer stroll on the two way-marked walks through the surrounding parkland.
