The journey through Capesthorne Hall begins in an Entrance Hall of historical paintings, marble sculptures, English, French and Dutch antique furniture and 16th century stained glass windows.
The Sculpture Gallery stands between the Saloon, with its family portraits, bronzes and ebony furniture, and the Queen Anne Room which features a monumental fireplace and heraldic mantelpiece surrounded by paintings, marbles and fine porcelain.
From here an impressive staircase leads to first floor exhibition rooms which give further insights into Capesthorne's history - the Royal Bedroom, Bow Room, Child's Room, American Room, Dorothy Davenport Room and Box Room.
Guests can enjoy the treasures of Capesthorne at their own pace or through personal guided tours.
Facilities can also be hired for corporate occasions, receptions and dinners, business meetings and family celebrations, including wedding parties and civil wedding ceremonies.
