Musgrove Family Home
Persuasion
The Musgrove Family Home is supposed to be fancy enough to make the family in the same category as the Eliotts, but not nearly as nice. In the 1971 version they do make it a rather lovely home, sizeable and well furnished.

In the 1995 version it's like an ancient English estate, and almost looks like a church.


In the 2008 version, it is more of a "large country home" than an elegant estate. The inside reflects this feel. I really like the contrast when you first see it. The two Musgrove sisters, young and full of energy, go racing across the lawn, full of fun and emotion. Then the two Elliot sisters, older and staid, walk across very slowly arm in arm.
