The library at the Blickling Estate, now a National Trust house, is utterly beautiful and home to a pretty extensive collection of Classical books.
There are editions dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries, some beautifully gilt, some bound in plain vellum.
Of course visitors aren't allowed to look inside them without a permit, but simply seeing their spines was a delight!
Here is a collection of images of the works of Cicero from the library.

In the 15th century, Blickling Hall was in the possession of Sir John Fastolf, who made a fortune in the Hundred Years’ War, and whose coat of arms is still on display here.
Later, the Hall came into the possession of the Boleyn family. It was home to Sir Thomas Boleyn, Earl of Wiltshire, the father of Anne Boleyn.
Blickling Hall has been in the care of the National Trust since 1940.
