Kentwell Hall and its collection

Kentwell Hall
Source

Kentwell Hall is a beautiful redbrick moated Tudor Manor House close to the historic village of Long Melford. Whilst not a stately home, this 'little great house' remains a lived-in and much-loved family home. Surrounded by timbered outbuildings, tranquil gardens and a large estate, Kentwell is popular for weddings, filming and functions and is noted for its special events including re-creations of Tudor life and the award-winning Scaresville. The House, Gardens & Farm are open from March - October and special events take place throughout the year.

  • Apollo's Insights AI-Generated

    Kentwell Hall, located in Long Melford, England, offers visitors a glimpse into Tudor-era life through its living history events and well-preserved manor house. The hall, dating back to the 16th century, features impressive architecture and beautifully maintained gardens. Visitors appreciate the immersive experience provided by costumed interpreters during special events, which bring history to life. The grounds are extensive and include a working farm, a maze, and various gardens, providing ample opportunity for exploration. While many enjoy the educational aspects and the authenticity of the historical recreations, some visitors find the admission prices to be on the higher side. The hall's interior, though interesting, can feel a bit worn in places. Some guests mention that the experience can vary depending on the day visited, with special event days offering a more comprehensive and engaging experience. Overall, Kentwell Hall provides a unique and educational outing for those interested in Tudor history and historic houses, though it may not appeal as much to those seeking a more conventional museum experience.
