Unusual Jacobean House built by George Calvert, founder of Maryland, USA. ‘Gothic’ Drawing Room wing added in the 1820s, later converted into a Jacobean-style Library designed by W. E. Nesfield. Visitors are now welcomed into a charming Victorian home, furnished with an eclectic mix of furniture, paintings, portraits and personalia, including many Arts and Crafts items, collected by the Calverts, Crowes, Carpenters and Talbots - the families who owned Kiplin between 1620 and 1968. The gardens and pleasure grounds are undergoing restoration. Visitors are delighted by the extent and beauty of the landscape.
