Marvel at the stately grandeur of the residence as you approach, and then venture within to delve into the rich historical heritage of the structure. Stroll through the opulent State Apartments, wander the landscaped beauty of the gardens, and then return to your comfortable coach. Relax on the journey back to central London, where your tour concludes.
