Magnificent late Victorian country house with garden and wooded estate.
Lanhydrock is the quintessential country house and estate, with the feel of a wealthy but unpretentious family home.
After a devastating fire in 1881 the Jacobean house was refurbished in high-Victorian style, with the best in country house design and planning and the latest mod-cons.
Discover two sides of Victorian life: from the kitchen which offers a thrilling glimpse into life ‘below stairs’, to the luxurious family areas, elegant dining room and spacious bedrooms which reveal the comforts of ‘upstairs’ living.
Make sure you take a stroll around the extensive gardens and enjoy their year-round colour. There are beautiful herbaceous borders, a fabulous formal parterre and colourful higher gardens filled with camellias, magnolias and rhododendrons.
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 opportunity.
There is still plenty to explore this winter, including parkland, woodland and cycle trails (cycle hire is available weekends only). Lanhydrock house and garden is now closed for winter and will be opening again on 1 March 2022. The Park Café and the Plant centre remain open for hot drinks, food and seasonal gifts.
The house and garden, as well as the parkland, woodland and cycle trails, will full reopen on 1 March 2022. They remain open until October 2022.
