Ragley Hall Houses
Robert Hooke designed Ragley in 1680. The Eighth Marquess of Hertford saw Graham Rust at work on a mural in Virginia and decided that he was the ideal artist to decorate the bare walls and ceilings of Ragley's South Staircase Hall. "The Temptation" was designed and painted between October 1969 and March 1983. It is painted in indelible gouache on a heavy pure rag paper on the walls and directly onto the plaster on the ceiling.
Relax in the delightful landscape designed by Capability Brown where peacocks freely roam. These developments, include the creation of traditional horticultural features and areas less contrived, fashioned with a naturalistic approach. The result is a garden rich in both horticultural interest and bio diversity.
Refresh yourself with a coffee or a light lunch at Hookes. Our freshly prepared and seasonal menu will make a delicious change every time.
