We visited on a weekday in the morning and practically had the place to ourselves which was fabulous. Sadly the horses at the stables were having a well deserved day off so we were unable to see them, however the house and gardens are spectacular. Inside the house we did a self guided tour and were respectfully approached with helpful facts and information in whichever room we were in. Lovely staff from the welcome through to our goodbyes.
Such a stunning and well maintained house just an hour outside London by train. It reminded me of 2 fictional houses, that being Downton Abbey and Wayne Manor from the Batman franchise. As an English heritage member, I got in for free but I think the admission price is quite fair. Best time to go would be during school term as it was fairly quiet when I went. You could easily spend a couple of hours there looking at everything. The staff were very friendly and willing to answer any questions that guests had about the house. Overall a fantastic visit.
I have been many times over many years and always very pleased. Returned recently and was very disappointed. Walled kitchen garden was totally hopeless. It was brilliant when HDRA ran it. Facilities such as carparking & toilets were dreadful. A lot of historical inaccuracy in the presentation of gardens and house display. Restoration needed on temple bridge and at other points. Nursery exhibition very poor. However, it is a special place with lots of unique features and lots to see.
What a beautiful estate house and lovely lovely gardens. Definitely worth visiting if in that area. Loved the cafe , the stuff, the programs with horses for children.
It was admittedly a very hot day when we visited, but the car park was a fair walk from the property, down a hill which had to be climbed up again to leave. There is disabled parking which is nearer, but it was an uncomfortable walk and would be equally so in cold, wet weather. While we're on the negatives, I think the shop misses a trick, as the stock is fairly basic compared to a similarly-sized National Trust property, or an independent such as Chatsworth, for example. The admission fee is very high, comparable to Hampton Court and other nationally significant stately homes, so you would hope for a more impressive visitor experience. What was best about it was the talk by the volunteer guide about the history of the house, which filled us in on the past, even greater, grandeur of the house. We didn't get to see the secondhand bookshop as it was another longish walk in the heat .
