a month agoWhat a wonderful day I have never been through so many rooms on a trip around a stately home and all of the guides were a font of knowledge, we took nearly two hours to get around the house and lots of information given in every room. A must to visit and we must go back during the Christmas period as they say it is a feast for the eyes. Thank you Burton Constable volunteers for a truly memorable visit. 👍

a month agoLovely day out. Food is excellent and a decent range of food. House is bigger than you think with lots of rooms to explore and volunteers on hand to give depth. Other items to explore including stables and whalebones.

4 weeks agoLarge, opulent, some fine furniture. Lovely grounds that are wanderable. Cafe very nice, and staff/volunteer guides are very knowledgeable and friendly. Yellow paint is to taste.

3 months agoA lovely and peaceful day out. The house is huge and the room guides very helpful. We enjoyed walking in the parkland, although we found the walks weren't greatly signposted or just non-existant in the place the map said they were. Enjoyed a lovely chicken fajita baguette for lunch, and excellent cake later in the afternoon in the cafe. All staff were helpful and friendly.

a week agoA really nice property for a family-friendly day out. It’s also worth visiting just for the tearoom (no tickets required)!
