What could be better for sun and showers on an April day than this little coat dress?
Made by Marks and Spencer in the Swinging Sixties, the special water repellent fabric was ideal for early Spring.
See it in our exhibition #playingbytherules, open daily

@NTKillerton on holiday locally. Came to do your Easter trail. Absolutely delighted to find my old London geography teacher from 30 yrs ago handed my 3yr old her chocolate egg. Miss Hardy inspirational teacher to many including me. Now you are lucky to have her on your team!
Due to high winds, Killerton is partially closed today, Monday 15 April.
This includes the garden, parkland, and Chapel grounds. The house, Killerton Kitchen Cafe, Stable Block and car park remain open.
While it might not feel quite like straw hat weather, we’ve been eyeing up these cosy children’s bonnets. This 1950s knitting pattern offers four options, which is your favourite?
#FashionFortnight
There’s a big change coming to our cafes… from today, we will be serving all cream teas with jam first and cream second.
After much consultation we feel that this is the correct method, and we hope that you enjoy your Cornish cream tea in style 😋🫖

An encouraging number of bats during today’s @BCT_NBMP hibernation survey at @NTKillerton. For the first time we found a Natterers bat, as well as the usual Lesser and Greater horseshoes and tree-roosting pips.
