We attended the Murder at the Manor event and were very pleasantly surprised. The local youth group that put on the event did such a good job and it was really good! It’s a nice way to look around the manor also!

An old cottage relocated from a few miles away. The highlight, even for adults, was being able to try on old clothes and armour. Very friendly and informative staff.
