Among England’s greatest stately homes, Apethorpe Palace is a private residence open during July and August for pre-booked tours only.
Apethorpe Palace was owned by Elizabeth I; she inherited the site from Henry VIII.
The palace became a favourite royal residence of both James I and Charles I. Its series of state rooms, including the King’s Bedchamber and the impressive long gallery, is one of the most complete to survive from the Jacobean period.
Apethorpe Palace is open on select dates for tours.
There are on-going renovations at Apethorpe Palace. Please be aware that smoking, vaping, BBQs and naked flames are not permitted anywhere on site.
