Temple Newsam House
Birthplace, in 1545, of the ill-fated Lord Darnley, husband of Mary, Queen of Scots, this grand residence was begun in 1521 but largely remodeled in the 17th and 18th centuries. Nestled in vast woodland, farmland, and Capability Brown-designed parkland, it's another good spot for a family day out, with priceless works of art and period furniture within, plus Europe's largest working rare breeds farm, a tearoom, and an ice-cream shop on sunny days.
