Killerton House
Fine 18th-century house with hillside garden and estate. Delightful hillside garden featuring rhododendrons, magnolias, and rare trees.
Stunning parkland walks all year round. Killerton house is home to the National Trust’s biggest fashion collection, with more than 20,000 items of historic clothing and accessories. The collection, which includes pieces from as far back as the 17th century, was started by Paulise de Bush before it was taken on by the team at Killerton in the 1970s. As it’s impossible to display every item at once, the fashion team create regular exhibitions on the first floor of the house. Each exhibition showcases about 80-100 items from the collection.
