A bibliophile's delight: Madresfield Court, Worcestershire

Cigar smoke and antique pages. 

For the bibliomaniacs lurking among us, cast a dreamy gaze upon this scrumptious view of the library in Madresfield Court, Worcestershire. An ancient seat dating back to late Medieval days, the structure has of course received many facelifts over it's expansive history, with the main refurbishment taking place in the 1860's. For those fancy pants blue-blooded folk that simply MUST have everything and then some, this handsome, elderly Grade 1-listed structure offers inhabitants a moat, an Arts and Crafts decorated chapel and a fantasy garden one really wouldn't mind becoming lost in. Daguerreian Dandy must now beg to be excused for the time being-I hear a Wilkie Collins novel, a pair toasty slippers and a fine cigar hollering my name....
