Rushton Hall, Kettering England

We returned the hire car after driving 4685 klm in 28 days (2911 miles) across five countries. Craig and Estelle Rowley kindly met us at the hire car location. We enjoyed a pub lunch together before visiting Darren and Debbie for a cuppa, then they drove together to Rushton Hall. Rushton Hall is in Northamptonshire, England, and was initially an ancestral home from 1438. In the 20th century, the house became a private school, and it has now been converted to a luxury hotel. The estate is about 227 acres (92 ha), of which 30 acres (12 ha) are formal gardens. The River Ise flows just south of the Hall.Read more
