About
A historic country house with architectural elements spanning centuries, from pele tower to Victorian styles. The estate features a walled garden with seasonal blooms, walking paths, and regular events including classic car shows and pottery exhibitions. Guided tours cover the house’s layered history, though advance booking is advised. The on-site café serves cakes and scones, and visitors can explore the grounds with dogs welcome. The gardens attract pollinators in summer, and loose gravel paths wind through the estate. Annual events range from literary festivals to horse trials, with parking available.
Customer Reviews
What a beautiful place. We thoroughly enjoyed our day here with our 2 German Shepherds. Large dogs were genuinely welcomed with open arms and the staff were so lovely and helpful. Stunning grounds and perfect walks to enjoy the incredible views. Finished off with a delicious coffee and cake in the lovely tearooms. Hope to be back soon. Highly recommended.
Lovely historic hall and gardens, well worth a visit. Guided tours need to be booked, possible to do at location depending on availability. Like many historic houses, no photos inside. Cake and scone in the cafe was lovely. Parking a short distance to the place and toilets available.
This beautiful estate is a must visit. It hosts a number of events across the year from ceramic wonders and car shows to music festivals, literary marvels, and horse trials. Great facilities, plenty of parking, clean toilets, accessible facilities, a tearoom, tours of the stunning listed estate house, gardens, woodland walks, and flower meadows. The tearooms are a must. On my next visit, I must set aside time to tour the house itself. You can book events, group visits, and school visits by prior arrangement.
