Product Information

In the market town of Romsey, Broadlands was once the country home of PM Viscount Palmerston. It became home to Lord Mountbatten. The historic mansion maintains its feeling as a real home—where the Queen and Prince Philip, as well as Prince Charles and the late Princess, spent part of their honeymoon. Inspired by the Colonial Countryside visit to Charlecote Park, where XazQ saw a painting of 18th-Century Indian ruler Tipu Sultan, on a trip to India she and her family went to Tipu Sultan’s Summer Palace and Museum in Mysore. There, XazQ was fascinated by the very different accounts of historical events compared with how they’re talked about in Britain, and the National Museum in Delhi is interested in partnering with the National Trust.
