I'm usually on my way to dog shows when I'm in Northants region, so not visiting stately homes and the like, but there are certainly some lovely views in your county. :o)

We use to go for picnics with the children when they were small to Kirby Hall , the children had a great time running through the ruins , up and down stairs , nobody was looking after it or in charge ,
We called in on a nostalgic trip not long ago and were quite disappointed to find that it is now looked after by , I think it was English Heritage and we had to pay to go in ........ LOL
