    What 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. 👍

    We really enjoyed our visit while on holiday in the area. There are a significant amount of rooms open and the conservation efforts are clearly excellent. The food in the cafe is good and it was lovely to be able to sit outside with tea and cake today (end of March). The signage for the walks needs a bit of work, we ended up climbing a fence to get back on track, but didn't fancy scaling the haha where the map said the path was going! An enjoyable day out.

    A 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.

    Lovely 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.
