No one has mentioned Newby Hall which is lovely. Not nearly so grand as Castle Howard. But still very worth your while. I know that it's accessible by public bus, but it would be a big hassle to get there this way.
I think I may do this trip at another time in order to go to Krakow at this time instead. But I appreciate the comments and will certainly use them in the future.
