Lanhydrock

Lanhydrock

Magnificent late Victorian country house with gardens and wooded estate

Lanhydrock is the perfect country house and estate, with the feel of a wealthy but unpretentious family home.

This winter take a stroll around the extensive gardens and enjoy the year-round colour. There are beautiful herbaceous borders, a fabulous formal parterre and colourful higher gardens. 

The estate is well worth exploring too, with ancient woodlands and tranquil riverside paths. There are also off-road cycle trails, with special routes for families and novice riders, and you can even hire a bike from us to make the most of this new opportunity. Open everyday 10am-4pm.

Our experienced team of education guides lead school groups on tours of the house which bring to life different aspects of Victorian Lanhydrock.

  • An atmospheric house presented as if the Victorians still live here
  • Opportunities to handle artefacts and replicas to bring history to life
  • A large estate where children can explore the natural world
  • A learning room for activity sessions
