About the Business
Welcome to Kedleston Hall, a magnificent eighteenth-century country house located in scenic Derbyshire, United Kingdom. This stunning institution is owned and managed by the National Trust, a charity organisation dedicated to preserving and protecting historic buildings and landscapes across the UK.
Kedleston Hall is an exceptional example of neoclassical architecture and interior design, featuring grand reception rooms, opulent staircases, and beautiful gardens that create an impressive and awe-inspiring visitor experience. The house was designed by the renowned architect Robert Adam and was commissioned by the Curzon family in the late 1700s.
As you explore the grand interiors, you'll discover the Curzon family's impressive collection of paintings, ceramics, and sculptures, as well as unique treasures such as a rare Chinese wallpaper and a beautifully preserved dining room. You can also admire the lavish furnishings and decorative objects, which reflect the taste and style of the Georgian period.
The Kedleston Hall estate extends over 820 acres, offering ample opportunities for outdoor recreation and appreciation of nature. The parkland features several walking trails, picnic areas, and wildlife habitats, alongside a collection of historic buildings such as the Orangery and the Temple of Apollo.
Kedleston Hall is also an ideal venue for events, weddings, and corporate functions, with several dedicated spaces available for hire. The venue offers a unique blend of history, elegance, and natural beauty, making it an unforgettable destination for any occasion.

"One of the national trusts finest properties. Set in beautiful landscaped gardens the approach is nothing short of breathtaking. The only issues currently are they are resurfacing the car park which should be done within about a month as will the refurbished toilets. . The hall itself was designed by Robert Adam and is simply stunning. It will take your breath away. The volunteers were informative and very friendly. There is a restaurant on site and was good on previous visits. Its also well worth looking inside the church which is adjacent to the hall. There are some wonderfully carved tombs inside. All in all, we'll worth a visit."
"What a splendid place to visit great looking dressed rooms. The volunteers were a great help and know so much about its history. The restaurant was an added bonus great tasting food and big cups of coffee. They have a gift shop and a second hand book store so plenty to choose from. There's also a church to investigate and a big play area so when you add it all up it equals a great family day out. I had a great day thanks to everyone looking forward to seeing them again."
"Always enjoy doing the walk through the grounds, most of which is shaded by trees - perfect in hot weather! There are few different walks to do, none of which are very strenuous so perfect for all the family. Gardens are lovely to relax in at the end and the house is well worth a visit."
"Had a great time on the long walk around the estate (the Hall wasn't open on the day of my visit, probably a good idea to check if you're planning to go). Has all the facilities you'll need plus the walking paths are subtable for pretty much everyone, lots of lovely views and wildlife to see (season dependent tho). Overall I had lovely afternoon and will visit again to see inside the Hall."
