This is stunning!
What’s in the Orangery now?
Most orangeries that I have been to had already been converted to cafes

A wonderful place. I am always impressed how the UK cherishes its heritage. I know it cost a dime, but worthwhile I would say.
Wonderful pictures and I think a great place to visit more than once.

  We are so lucky over here in the UK.
  
  It is a place I have visited many times. This is my first visit in winter.

Most unusual to have an orangery in that position as opposed to a garden outpost. It makes a spectacular scene with foreground and background layers.

  I love the terraces in this garden. We were pushed for time, but I insisted on venturing to this part of the garden
