When visiting and staying in Telford take time out and visit Attingham Park and Sunnycroft, both open throughout the year. Tucked away in Wellington, Sunnycroft is a rare suburban Edwardian villa and mini-estate with original contents and features that transport you back to the pre-First World War country house lifestyle.
With a house that takes you back in time, a lovely garden and a quaint tearoom it is a super half day visit. In contrast Attingham, on the outskirts of Shrewsbury, is a large country estate with an imposing Georgian mansion at the heart of a designed parkland with miles of walks, walled garden and a deer park.
These fabulous National Trust places give you the chance to relax, marvel in history and the rich family stories, enjoy the renowned tea and cake or be invigorated with long walks, running routes and sporting activities. The National Trust is a charitable organisation with hundreds of volunteers kindly giving their time to assist a good cause.
