'Kingston Lacy's wider estate is 8,500 acres, making it the largest lowland estate cared for by the National Trust. It's still run as a working estate and boasts 12 farms, three villages, two pubs, two churches (including the 'House' church of St Stephen's at Pamphill) and a farm shop.
The estate also contains a staggering 72 miles of footpaths and bridleways, equivalent to walking from Westminster Cathedral to Salisbury Cathedral. But don't be daunted, waymarked walks will guide you round.'
