Newstead Abbey House
Newstead Abbey House is a beautiful historic house set in a glorious landscape of gardens and parkland within the heart of Nottinghamshire. Founded as a monastic house in the 12th century, Newstead became the seat of the Byron family in 1540 and was home to the poet Lord Byron between 1808-1814. Inside the Abbey there is much to explore including Victorian room settings and the poet´s private apartments. There is also a library plus a fascinating collection of paintings. For children (and adults), there are replicas of Lord Byron´s favourite clothes to try on in the interactive display `Dress to Impress Being Byron´. Limited disabled access.
