We’ve been to Clandon Park once or twice before, but its been a while, so last spring we decided to make a return visit and sneak a few photos in.
And here we are in front of the house (just to state the obvious)… actually its the back of the house, but its rather impressive from whatever angle you happen to be facing.
The back of the house again… with a friendly pheasant wandering the lawn
This is from the side… still impressive.
More from the side… nice day for it!
Our friend the pheasant
The girls found the “secret garden”…. they’ve been reading too many Enid Blyton books, but to be fair, it was bit hard to find.
Unfortunately the daffodils were past their best by the time we arrived, otherwise this would have been a very impressive scene. If only we had have visited a week or two earlier.
You can’t take photos inside the main house, which is a shame… its very impressive… but you can take photos in the basement, which is the home of the Surrey Infantry Museum… an amazingly interesting place to visit.
Amongst the things to see here, there’s lots of military medals, including some VC’s, if you’re into that kind of thing…. and I know a few people who are.
And if you’re not into that kind of thing, there’s always the dressups.
OK, how about a few dodgy extras…
An aerial map of the place
And another dodgy Keezee video… if the shoddy camerawork doesn’t make you feel ill, you might enjoy the peaceful bird noises!
