This fascinating Tudor mansion makes a
great day out for the family. Discover the history of the house, which
was originally an Augustinian Priory and was lived in for over 800 years.
There are seven acres of delightful gardens to explore, including a kitchen
garden and a physic garden. In the grounds you will find a working
watermill where most afternoons you can see the flour being ground.
Sample the flour in the bread and scones served in the restaurant. The
priory has the longest medieval water-filled moat in England, and you may
see swans, ducks, and even kingfishers there.
There is good access in much of the
grounds for disabled visitors, and the upstairs of the museum can be viewed
via video. Wheelchairs are available to borrow.
