Sudbury Hall is a most individual late 17th century house with rich interior decoration. The Great Staircase is one of the most elaborate in England and is richly decorated with baskets of fruit on the newel posts and scrolls of flowers down the stairs. Superb plasterwork, decorative murals and ceilings, and the underside of the stairs house paintings by Laguerre. The drawing room has one of the earliest carvings by Grinling Gibbons.

Top Ten Family-Friendly Historic Houses by Abigail Flanagan

"One of Derbyshire’s finest Restoration mansions, Sudbury ticks the living-history box big time. Meet the Butler tours and a children’s trail help uncover life at the Hall, but the unique draw here is the chance to experience the past 200-years of childhood. Eight themed, interactive galleries cover everything from outdoor adventure to imagination. It’s all hugely hands-on, but nor are the challenges of previous years overlooked: kids can pretend to be pupils in the strict Victorian schoolroom, or even chimney sweeps (there’s a chimney to climb if they dare!) One for all the family, grandparents included, who’ll no doubt love the chance to reminisce."
