Cragside, located in Northumberland and managed by the National Trust, is a unique and fascinating place to visit. Known as Britain's original smart home, this historic mansion is filled with innovative gadgets and inventions for modern living. The surrounding grand designer garden offers stunning views, peaceful walks, and plenty of family-friendly activities. With over 40 miles of footpaths to explore, including the Formal Garden, Pinetum, Rock Garden, and more, there's something for everyone to enjoy at Cragside. Don't miss the chance to learn about the pioneering past of this remarkable estate at the Powerhouse and Pump House.
