    My wife and I visited the hall as we are national trust members, on arriving we booked the guided tour of the hall and thoroughly enjoyed the enthusiastic commentary by kathy. Very well informed mixed with a little humour the tour was very good, the gentleman in costume and musket was also very friendly and pleasantly mannered. High recommendation and great value for our subscription. Thank you.
