Take a peek inside these Bridgerton-style dream homes

Hit Netflix series Bridgerton is returning to our screens for a long-awaited second season this week.

The spectacular stately homes and immaculate interiors featured in the series really captured the imagination of property lovers last year.

So, for those who can’t wait until Friday, we’ve taken a look at some incredible manor houses and grand estates that wouldn’t look out of place on the set of the period drama.

Take a look below.

Stanstead Hall in Essex

Stanstead Hall dates back to the early 16th century, although the first evidence of a structure on the land goes back to the 11th century. Many notable historical figures have owned the Tudor estate over the years, such Sir William Parr and Sir William Waldegrave.

Today, the Grade II-listed property has 13 bedrooms and is set in 45 acres of beautiful grounds, with a walled garden, heated swimming pool and a listed barn.

Hunton Court in Kent

Hunton Court is the former home of Prime Minister Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, and dates back to the 13th century. In the early Victorian period, the house was adapted to the existing Georgian style. It’s been built with light, almost honey-coloured ragstone, which is more typically found in the Cotswolds.

The sprawling eight-bedroom home is set in 132 acres of beautiful and established 18th-century parkland, which creates a magical setting for this unique house.

Ston Easton Park in Somerset

Ston Easton Park is a former country house hotel, and features wings of impeccably decorated rooms that could be straight out of a scene in Bridgerton.

There are 20 bedrooms and bathrooms inside the palatial property, with formal dining rooms, reception halls and games rooms. The property also comes with an additional three-bedroom gardener’s cottage and an old coach house.

Cell Park in St. Albans

Cell Park was originally built in 1539, and over the years the house and grounds have been sympathetically restored.

Each room is filled with history and character, including the magnificent drawing room and dining room, which was formerly a ballroom. The west wing of the house has been modernised to include a cinema room, gym and dance studio, and a spacious home office.

Hurst Lodge in Berkshire

Hurst Lodge dates back to 1580 and was built by John Barker, who at the time was a gentleman usher to Queen Elizabeth I.

Though the 10-bedroom home has been extended over the years, it retains many of its period features, such as 17th-century oak panelling and original flooring and fireplaces.

There’s also a converted coach house on the estate, along with farm buildings and a separate cottage.
