We visited Tyntesfield (a National Trust) last week. It was a perfect day, absolutely beautiful weather. We unexpectedly ran into some friends we've met through the homeschool group we're apart of so the boys especially had fun playing with the other kids. The house was amazing and the grounds were really pretty... wide open spaces, great views, gorgeous gardens. It's a vast property, and we didn't make through all of it so we'll have to go back for sure.
The rapeseed fields are everywhere.
Ginormous rose bushes.
The NT is in the process of building a play area for children on the grounds. It's got a long way to go from being finished, but the kids had a blast pretending.
They had boxes for children in some of the rooms to put on things people might be wearing in the particular rooms.
This was a huge house, all these bells in different rooms for servants to be rung.
This was the biggest hat/cane/umbrella/coat rack I've ever seen.
The house has it's own on grounds chapel, which is quite common for these big estates.
Every time we see a grassy hill, Nathanael wants to roll down. He's got a long way to go before he figures it out on his own, but he sure has a good time trying!
