The house is surrounded by gardens and parkland which contains many magnificent old trees and a national nature reserve. Following a major fire in 1879 the house was rebuilt with care and superb workmanship, largely to the original design. The house was let in 1924 as a girls&#8217; boarding school for 60 years, after which extensive restoration of the buildings and the interiors took place. The family pictures and the collection of English and Continental furniture are on show and the principal rooms remain a fine example of the type of &#8216;grand interior&#8217; popular at the turn of the century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-attachment-id=\"1053\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/olympus-digital-camera\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/pe6e67546.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;SP350&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1178995895&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;13.2&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;50&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.004&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/pe6e67546-300x225.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/pe6e67546.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/pe6e67546.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1053\" title=\"OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/pe6e67546.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/pe6e67546-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"443\" data-attachment-id=\"4063\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/duncombe-park-in-yorkshire-uk\/03\/000987_37f611e8\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"640,443\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&lt;a href=\\&quot;https:\/\/www.geograph.org.uk\/photo\/987\\&quot; rel=\\&quot;nofollow\\&quot;&gt;Helmsley Castle&lt;\/a&gt; by &lt;a href=\\&quot;https:\/\/geograph.org.uk\/profile\/12\\&quot; rel=\\&quot;nofollow\\&quot;&gt;Paul Allison&lt;\/a&gt; is licensed under &lt;a href=\\&quot;https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\\&quot; rel=\\&quot;nofollow\\&quot;&gt;CC-BY-SA 2.0&lt;\/a&gt;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Helmsley Castle&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"000987_37f611e8\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/www.geograph.org.uk\/photo\/987&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Helmsley Castle&lt;\/a&gt; by &lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/geograph.org.uk\/profile\/12&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Paul Allison&lt;\/a&gt; is licensed under &lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;CC-BY-SA 2.0&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8-300x208.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8.jpg\" alt=\"Helmsley Castle\" class=\"wp-image-4063\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wansait.com\/tranzit\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2012\/07\/000987_37f611e8-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geograph.org.uk\/photo\/987\" rel=\"nofollow\">Helmsley Castle<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/geograph.org.uk\/profile\/12\" rel=\"nofollow\">Paul Allison<\/a> is licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CC-BY-SA 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Helmsley, Yorkshire, is an impressive early-18th century house and family home of Lord and Lady Feversham, has one of the finest Baroque landscapes in England.
