Awarded Yorkshire's Small Visitor Attraction of the Year 2011, this National Trust owned property boasts an attractive 17th-century manor house, delightful gardens, tearoom and shop.

The house with its distinctive architectural features sits within mature grounds containing beech trees and a duck pond.

The ruined façade of the Starkie wing covered in clematis, honeysuckle and roses provides a dramatic backdrop to the garden. Wild flowers, perennials, and fragrant herbs provide changing swathes of colour throughout the year.
