National trust property. Beautiful, stunning, sadly wasn't able to go into house. Fabulous grounds to walk, plants, flowers, lake, wildlife. Cafe pricy, but, nice setting, although not alot of seating space around, if you have wheelchairs, prams etc. Would visit again.

Fantastic estate with a house that has quiet a lot of it open. The volunteers were very knowledgeable and it was good to see conservation in action in the library not just cleaning the book but catalogueing if/what is written on the front covers. If you are interested in WW2 RAF they have a small museum run by volunteers but its not open every day. Gardens were immaculate too, all in a fantastic estate.

Had a fantastic day out walking around the bluebell woods. I was visiting with my dad who used one of the electric scooters available. Dad has never used one before and he got a full tutorial. I am really grateful to the staff and the National Trust for providing these as we would not have been able to go otherwise. It was absolutely wonderful and the scenery was second to none.

Wonderful place for a day out. If you don't want to go into the Hall, lovely walks in the Gardens and Park. Great Cafe, Gift Shop and a wonderful second hand bookshop. Friendly and helpful staff. Definitely somewhere I want to return to.

Really extensive grounds, beautiful gardens and estate with plenty of long walks to be had or indeed cycled as you can hire bikes of you want. Nice cafes and even a pub just near the entrance by the car park, a true gem of a place with loads to see and do in the house and in the gardens. Wonderful day was had by myself and my husband 😁
