What beautiful grounds and parkland with an amazing house overseeing it. The house is a working house with some interesting features. Anne Lister's alterations are interesting as is her history leading to some tiny spaces and steep steps. The house's history is told throughout with information points. The coach house and stables are filled with agricultural history and carriages. Cafe by the ornamental lake is popular and efficient. The stonewall garden near the house is really interesting as well

Fantastic place to visit. 50p per hour to park and £ 8.00 to go in the house. They advise booking tickets on line to visit the house due to the increased interest with the tv series Gentleman Jack. You can however phone the hall and ask if they have space for you to turn up on the day and pay. They allow a rolling 30 visitors every half hour to the house. Beautiful grounds to walk in, there are toilets and a cafe.

Absolutely stunning building, you could almost feel the walls talking to you. Lovely market there the grounds were beautiful although was ruined I felt by a certain family drinking cans of cider and being loud and obnoxious to people visiting the home. But otherwise a lovely day there .would highly recommend.

Like many others I suspect, we visited on the back of viewing 'Gentleman Jack'. It's a fascinating and lovingly cared for building and we took our time in the rooms reading up on the history of the hall. Lovely grounds to walk in addition to the hall.

A wonderful place, very homely stuffed full of antique furniture, paintings and a few costumes. Knowledgeable room stewards who'll give you the history of the house and Ann Listers story. There's a cafe selling drinks and snacks and a room showing a video of how they translated Ann's diary's etc. Very informative. There's also lots of outbuildings consisting of an apocathy, cooper, basket maker, etc., and a large stables housing carriages. We'll worth a visit. I didn't even get to see the gardens and grounds, there's a small train that for £2.50 will give you a tour of the grounds, next time. Entrance fee is £8 per adult. Nice and quiet during the week. Opens at 10am.
