Mount Stewart

Another National Trust owned house in Northern Ireland. This one is on the Ards Pennisula and is located in an area with a micro climate that provides for a spectacular garden. The house is undergoing a huge renovation project.

  1. Love the National Trust and their houses and gardens. Especially liked the stone dinosaur hiding in the garden from your pictures :)
