A stately home has unveiled a new holiday cottage on the edge of its 500-acre estate. 
 
Willow Cottage is a three double-bedroom cottage located on the Estate Yard of the Wolterton Park country hall and estate.

The Palladian Hall and grounds were built in 1741 by Horatio Walpole, the brother of Britain’s first Prime Minister Robert Walpole.
