Lovely park. Great at kids play area, tennis courts. Nice place for a weekend stroll
Interesting history of the town and local area, free to enter. Worth a visit.
The mansion is Full of character! Offers a lot to explore. Also free admission which is always nice ;)
Very friendly staff and lots to see despite certain areas being closed off due to Covid restrictions. Whilst not an Ed Sheeran fan , the exhibition was still interesting and complemented the other local boys (Gainsborough and Constable ) a large collection of whose works were displayed later on. The room settings were excellent with some really interesting pieces of furniture and informative info boards. The Great Hall and the unusual way that The Library and the Rococo Room interact with the space at the top of the stairs (with two large window-like openings and two false doors ) make this a fascinating place posing so many questions.
Only minor negative - too much of the Tudor overmantel in the Servants Hall was masked by what looked like a bacon back curved settle (nice piece of furniture in its own right).
A very enjoyable visit. Loved the unusual bands of white inlay in two items of furniture in the Dining Room ( not ivory but horse teeth !)
Look forward to coming back again when the other rooms are open.
Incidentally the Mansion is only a short walk from the town centre where Sparrowe's House (aka The Ancient House - 15th cent) has really good figurative plaster work around the windows and don't miss the Public Library (1924) in Northgate with delightful animal carvings around the original main entrance.
So peaceful, well kept and added bonus of Ed's memorabilia
