Holme Pierrepont Hall is the earliest brick building in Nottinghamshire, built by Sir William Pierrepont in 1500 and still lived in by his descendants.
The house is set in Parkland and Gardens, ten or so minutes from the middle of Nottingham, yet in a rural setting, as part of a hamlet that once was the centre of a large estate.
The Mediaeval Lodgings have remained unaltered since the time the house was built with their oak beams brickwork and open fires.
The house contains both family pictures and furniture that relate to both the Pierrepont and Brackenbury families.
The Grade II listed Courtyard Garden was designed in 1875 and has a miniature box parterre and is best seen from the first floor of the building. The East Garden was laid out in 1973 and has clipped formal yews with the garden wall of 1628 on two sides.
