Photography in the house

Visitors can take photographs in the house, but please don’t use flash. This is so that the collection can be preserved better, and prevents light damage to fabrics.

Visitors who can’t access the upstairs

Our afternoon person-led house experiences are on the ground floor of the house only. For visitors who are not able to climb the stairs, we have a book of photographs of the upstairs rooms which you are welcome to sit and look through. This helps give you a glimpse of what the house is like upstairs.
