Experts' Choice Award Aston Hall
What the experts agree on
This striking Jacobean mansion (1618-1635) impresses with ornate ceilings and fireplaces, while Civil War cannonball marks tell dramatic stories. Set in lush grounds north of Birmingham, it's a well-preserved window into England's turbulent past.
“This ornate English estates "Prodigy House" still bears the cannonball marks of civil war. ”
