A Romantic Affair at Kedleston Hall

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with your loved one in the exquisite surrounds of one of the country’s finest stately homes. Enjoy a glass of bubbly on arrival, sensuous cello playing and a fire-lit meal in the sumptuous Caesars’ Hall before journeying through the house to witness the intimate drama of the first meeting between those two great Romantic poets and rakish lovers, Byron and Shelley.

The year is 1816 and the “mad, bad and dangerous to know” Lord Byron is about to leave his ancestral home, and his country, for good. The infamous earl’s departure is interrupted by the arrival of another great, revolutionary poet whose fame has yet to be established. Fire and brimstone collide as the poets’ brilliance and bravado clash.
