Lyme Park Hall: The Pride & Prejudice of the National Trust!

Discover the story of England’s most romantic stately home — Lyme Hall, the heart of Cheshire’s hills.”

Hidden on the edge of England’s Peak District, Lyme Hall has stood for over six centuries — home to the Legh family, whose story is filled with loyalty, legend, and intrigue.

From medieval knights and the legendary Lyme Mastiff, to secret Catholic sympathies during the Reformation, and a starring role as Mr. Darcy’s Pemberley in the BBC’s Pride & Prejudice, this grand house has seen it all.

Check out my cinematic journey through the real history of Lyme Hall — exploring its architecture, hidden stories, and how it became one of Britain’s most beloved stately homes!

NT at first said it was okay to film inside the house, and I got a couple of clips in before they changed their mind, and said I couldn’t film inside there … and got a couple after. :wink: !

A beautifully crafted video. It’s very short sighted of the NT not to embrace your work :heart:
