Little Moreton Hall

Description

Little Moreton Hall It’s not your eyes playing tricks on you. Seeing the tumbling architecture of Little Moreton Hall for the first time, engineers in 1990 could not believe their eyes either. This timber-framed building, curled around with a scenic moat, has defied logic for over 500 years. Step back in time inside this higgledy-piggledy house and discover what every day Tudor life tells us about the way we live today.

You’ll find herbs and vegetables that the Tudors would have used for their cooking and medicines surrounding the Elizabethan style knot garden. Take a stroll around the moat to spot creatures great and small who call Little Moreton Hall their home.

Price starts from £16.50 for Adults(18 years and over), £8.30 for Children(5-17 & under 5s free) and £41.30 for Family(2 Adults and up to 3 children). If you are looking for Best place for day out with kids and families then this is the perfect destination offering fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories for everyone.
