Coughton Court has been the home of the Throckmorton family since they built it around 1530. It holds a unique place in English history with its close connections with the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Behind the Tudor Gatehouse house you will find the courtyard with its fine Elizabethan half-timbering, where a knot garden leads to lawns and fine vistas of the Warwickshire countryside. The house stands in 25 acres of grounds containing some of the most breathtaking gardens in the country. It was Clare McLaren-Throckmorton's intention to create a garden, which compliments the beautiful house and to give it the setting it deserves.NYC Best Hotel Deals: 50% Savings In New York!
