    Kings Weston Action Group Newsletter 11 An Autumn Update A very busy Summer... There has been a lot of activity at KWAG since our last newsletter in the Spring. We hope everyone has been able to keep up to date with most of our activities through local press, email, or on our regularly updated Facebook Page. But at last we have time to catch our breath and compose this eleventh update. There is plenty that we haven’t been able to cover in this update including a successful Doors Open Day at the house in September and anything more than a very brief overview of the practical conservation work of the last few months. Most of this year has been focused on events as part of our Heritage Lottery Funded ‘All our stories’ project. This initiative aimed to get people involved in exploring their local history, customs and traditions, and at Kings Weston we chose to do that through Above: Justin Smith of the engaging people through the park’s natural North Somerset and Bristol history and wildlife.

  • Enjoying Country Life to the Full – Only the English Know How to Do That!’: Appreciation of the British Country House by Hungarian Aristocratic Travellers
    This is the Accepted Manuscript version of Fatsar, Kristof (2017) ‘Enjoying country life to the full – only the English know how to do that!’: appreciation of the British country house by Hungarian aristocratic travellers. In: Stobart, Jon, (ed.) Travel and the British country house: cultures, critiques and consumption in the long eighteenth century. U.K. : Manchester University Press. pp. 145-167. ISBN 9781526110329 The full book details can be found at https://manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526110329/ Chapter 7 ‘Enjoying country life to the full – only the English know how to do that!’: appreciation of the British country house by Hungarian aristocratic travellers Kristof Fatsar Introduction Britain was the most attractive new travel destination for Hungarian aristocrats1 towards the end of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century. This phenomenon followed continental fashion, as the achievements of the British agricultural as well as the industrial revolution attracted nobility and professionals from all over the Continent, and from Hungary too, to study the new methods first hand.2 Naturally, different levels of Hungarian society had different agenda when travelling. Country house tourism was an activity pursued with various interests based on the difference in wealth, upbringing, cultural involvement and so on. Nevertheless, it was followed by intellectuals who were more likely to share their experiences with the wider public in written form. In that sense, it is better recorded than the experiences of others who travelled to Britain for commercial or other more down-to-earth purposes. Regrettably, there are no reliable data to judge the percentage of noblemen or intellectuals from the early period of visits to Britain.
