This magnificent house charts life in Victorian times. There are 50 rooms to explore, from the high-Victorian interiors of the family home to the extensive servants' quarters 'below stairs', plus wonderful gardens and a wooded estate to stroll in and an adventure playground for the young ones to let off steam. In 2014 cycle trails have been created with bike hire on site.
A stately home with magnificent gardens – 50 acres including a sunken Italian garden, a lake and over 700 varieties of rhododendron. In summer plays are staged here.
Situated in south east Cornwall with miles of walks through the hidden steep-sided thickly-wooded River Par valley, the Luxulyan Valley was designated a World Heritage Site in 2006 due to its major concentration of industrial remains, the majority of which are as a result of the work of Joseph Treffry (1782 -1850). Treffry owned one of the largest copper mines which at its peak was worked by 17 water wheels and six steam engines. Treffry's viaduct, the abundant industrial remains and the breathtaking natural beauty of this area make it a truly unique site in the South West.
In 1844 a terrible crime was committed on Bodmin Moor. As a visitor you will watch the evidence and decide whether the accused is guilty. Open week days year round and Saturday's from Easter to October, take a look at their website for further details and ticket prices.
