We possibly visited it at one of the best times in the year, on a glorious summer weekend. The tour of the Hall is interesting but pretty much standard. No exceptional artefacts on display. Interesting link of the family to the 2nd Gurkha Rifles. There are framed bills from the mid 1800s. The Hall is living history, which is the norm in the UK.
The high point of the day was the gardens. Bluebells were carpeting the wilderness. The sun highlighted the beautiful, bright colours. Payments mostly in cash though some facility for cards may be available. Parking is available, and the tea room is nice.
