The Willoughby family have owned Grimsthorpe for 500 years and, as Lord Great Chamberlain, their close connection to the monarchy means that the castle is now home to a collection of very special items made for England’s Kings and Queens, including thrones and tapestries.

The house was built to accommodate a visit from Henry VIII and his court, who also hunted red deer in the park during their stay. James I also visited and his gift of embroidery work is on view in the house. The ancient woodland is of national importance.
