[Photo of Kenwood house]

Kenwood is one of London’s finest ’country houses’. The house is a masterpiece by Robert Adam who remodelled its facades and interiors in the 1760s for the 1st Earl of Mansfield. The grounds were re-designed in the 1790s by Humphry Repton, who created magnificent vistas towards the city. In 1929, Kenwood was given to the nation, together with an internationally important collection of paintings, known as the Iveagh Bequest, and has been enjoyed by the public ever since.
