Longleat online: information and bookings

The splendour of Longleat House nestling alongside a lake and within rolling 'Capability' Brown landscaped grounds is a view that cannot be missed. Fringed by thousands of trees the grounds include formal gardens, a 'Secret Garden' the 'Pleasure Walk', a 19th-century planting of rhododendrons and azaleas, topiary and fine examples of mazes including the Love Labyrinth, the Sun Maze and the Lunar Labyrinth.

A recent addition to Longleat are standing stones at Heaven's Gate - the massive stones and a ring-shaped 'gateway' - made up of 13 smaller stones - form part of a gigantic sculpture which was commissioned by the Seventh Marquess of Bath.
