An impressive mansionat at the heart of an estate with parkland gardens and its own home farm. You may want to visit each aspect on different days as there is a lot to see. This place is wheelchair friendly which is a plus in my ratings. Around the mansion there are the parterre gardens to walk through. These are colourful throughout the seasons, summer being my favourite.There is a walled garden, with fruit trees grown on the walls, vegetables and herbaceous borders. The farm is modern and daily activities can be seen being carried out in the piggery and cattle sheds. A chance to learn about farming is also promoted. History: You will find this place listed in the Doomsday Book as far back as 1086. It was a small manor houseatthat date with a deer park. A new house was built in 1650 and various people extended it, or it was sold to pay off debts. Eventually becoming designated to The National Trust January 1985. Probably not a National Trust venue you will get to see in one day

One way system in walled garden, the rest is free flow at the moment. Take away coffee available
Great national trust property. Brilliant place for a family day out. We enjoyed the walk around the farm and saw the piglets! Nice cafes and great walks around the estate.
Great day out and well organised re social distancing - credit to the National Trust team. Minus one star for lack of adequate seating [I'm nearly 70] and was not informed at Reception that the 'farm' closed at 3pm so long journey on a very hot day was waste of time and energy.
A lovely relaxing place to be for the whole family. Felt safe following the covid policy. Well worth a visit.
