"Popped in here for a hour at the end of a busy Sunday out and we really enjoyed it. It is only a small place, but very interesting. Comes with a guided tour which takes about 45mins (we don't normally like tours as the kids get bored) but this one was fun and interesting and the gentleman clearly kn..."ew his stuff and was friendly and informative. It was also needed to explain about the musical instruments.
Beautiful music boxes and gramophones etc. Everything is clockwork and the sounds are wonderful! A Steinway piano that plays by itself from a piano roll. I think the guide said it was worth £38k. Some of the instruments came from famous places such as Kensington palace. A very enjoyable hour out and we all enjoyed it, esp hubby who is very musical. There is a gift shop and toilets.
Very nostalgic and never seen anything like this before and well worth a visit.

"Evidently the first place in the UK to write rules for racing, about 400 years ago. This was an entertainment centre for the friends of one John Dutton. Entertainment included racing a deer vs. dogs. over a one mile course. Great restoration job by the National Trust.
PS Really good coffee and cake..."s offered bu it is not blatantly advertised so look out for it
Lovely woods around, contented sheep and cows when we visited 7.6.13
