The notes suggest a house whose interest centres on its later Pre-Raphaelite-era additions as much as its original 17th-century structure.
Worth the trip

Reviewers give the gardens and grounds top billing, describing them as beautifully maintained with walks suited to a range of abilities and something to see in every season. The hall is praised for its character and for having most rooms open, and one reviewer notes that admission includes a talk and tour. Staff and volunteers are described as friendly and helpful, children are said to be well catered for, and the Wellbeing wood with its forest bathing area is picked out by one visitor. Cafes and toilets are considered well placed, with scones and ice cream mentioned. One wildlife enthusiast was disappointed to find nothing at the wildlife hide, having hoped for red squirrels, but found the riverside walk rich in wildlife instead.
