The house was built between 1685 and 1688 for Sir John Brownlow. It is one of the finest examples of Restoration Period architecture, and is often considered to be the epitome of the English country house. It featured as Lady Catherine de Bourgh's residence, Rosings Park, in the BBC's 1995 television version of Pride and Prejudice.
The gardens are expansive and semi-formal, with a wide range of features of various periods and styles.
