Seat of the Earls of Belmore, the grandeur of Castle Coole includes the State Bedroom prepared for George IV. A major project is underway to restore and open up many of the servants' rooms and currently on show are the atmospheric kitchen, servants' hall, wine cellar, footman's room and plunge bath used by the family on their return from pursuits outdoors.
