Attingham, situated on the outskirts of Shrewsbury in Shropshire, in the village of Atcham. A restored mansion property owned and managed by National Trust, Attingham is a lovely mixture of a location. From the imposing mansion to walk around- both above stairs and the heart of the action in the basements and former servants rooms. Attingham also has acres of deer park, woodlands and fields to walk around, a formal walled garden and orchard and over the last few summers there have been archeological digs taking place on the site.
Attingham has seasonal delights throughout the year, spring blossom in the orchard, summer walks in the parkland, autumn colours in the woods, deer feeding in the deer park and every Christmas the mansion is decorated with dozens of themed trees and decorations.
One of our closest sites, many an hour has been spent investigating both the history and natural environment of the area. The walled gardens, glass house and bothy are particular favourites- I personally like to try and spot the bothy cat, Scraps.
