Should the answer to question 2 be Longleat House?

Etch

Given the question, I would hope that putting 'Longleat' alone would be sufficient to indicate that the answer is referring to the stately home, but adding 'House' should be equally valid and appears to be how the building is generally mentioned. I'll amend the answer, to make it clear.
