Euston Hall has been home for the Dukes of Grafton for over 300 years. The Hall, its origins dating from the Middle Ages, contains among its treasures the famous 17th century collection of paintings of the Court of Charles II by Van Dyck and Lely. The Park was conceived by William Kent and is considered to be amongst his greatest works. The rose gardens and borders are the inspiration of the present Duke. A river walk leads to a newly restored watermill built in the 1670s. Home-made teas are available in the old kitchens. Craft shop.

Located on the A1088, 12 miles north of Bury St Edmunds.
