Quick facts
The villa was found in 1811 when a farmer's plough struck a large stone, and it opened to visitors in 1814.
Its mosaics include a Medusa head, and its northern corridor, about 24 metres long, is described as the longest in Britain.
It is open Wednesday to Sunday from April to October, and daily in August.
