Stourhead Gardens

On our way home from Bristol this afternoon, we stopped at Stourhead, an 2600 acre estate at the source of the River Stour in Wiltshire. 





This painting was done in the 1600's. We saw amazing art throughout the mansion.

The grounds were immense... and so beautiful. We followed pathways up & down, down & up, and up back to the entrance. The sun was out so that was a real bonus.
