Salisbury's Mompesson House reopens for the season
We can even take a look around some never-before-seen areas
Mompesson House, in Salisbury's Cathedral Close, is being reopened for the summer by the National Trust.
Visitors will be able to once again go on pre-booked guided tours around the 18th century townhouse.
They'll run five times a day from Friday to Tuesday each week throughout the summer season.
The first half of the tour takes place outside, focussing on the architecture and the setting of Mompesson within the historic Cathedral Close, before moving into the entrance hall.
Visitors can then explore the dining room, large drawing room, small drawing room and library and go up the beautiful oak staircase to two bedrooms and a reception room, as well as the tranquil garden.
Emma James, Site Manager at Mompesson House, said:
"After opening last year with a number of rooms closed, we’re looking forward to having all the rooms open this year and reopening the library. We’ve also removed the rope barrier in the south west bedroom so visitors will be able to wander freely around this room for the first time.
"We’ve enhanced the presentation of every room and have brought out some collection items from storage, that have never been on display before, to bring to life some of the stories of former residents such as Barbara Townsend and Denis Martineau."
Due to the limited spaces on each tour, all visitors need to pre-book, including National Trust members.
It's £8 for adults to book onto a tour, but free for members.
You can find out more from the National Trust website, or by calling the booking line on 0344 249 1895.
