Recommendations for National Trust properties to visit.

George Clarke did a tv programme on National Trust properties which is being repeated. I watched one last night but I’m afraid I can’t remember which channel it was.

There are lovely ones in the North East Cragside, Wallington, I also have a soft spot for Gibside as spent a lot of time there when my children were young.

We went to Cragside (Northumberland) for the afternoon and ended up spending three days there in total. So much to see?

So many beautiful and interesting properties and gardens.
However if you find yourself in N . Wales, Penrhyn Castle is not to be missed. Took my breath away when we entered, not what I expected at all.

Gosh too many to recall. We take our NT book with us and look for places nearby. We've been to so many. Some that spring to mind are -
Cragside, Northumberland. We visited when the rhododendrons were out. Stunning.
Lyme Park, Stockport where they filmed Pride & Prejudice, the Colin Firth one.
Hill Top, Beatrix Potter's house in The Lake District.
