Owned by the Montagu family for over 400 years, the Beaulieu Estate's history actually stretches back for more than 800 years, with Beaulieu Abbey established back in 1204, where it remained a working abbey until the dissolution of the monasteries. After that, the estate was sold off, to a direct descendant of the current owners. Palace House and Gardens were first opened to the public in 1952.
