Private Cotswold Manor Tour

Embark on a special journey behind the scenes with our exclusive Private Cotswold Manor Tour. Designed for inquisitive history lovers, this experience opens the doors to one of England’s most captivating fortified manor houses — a place still privately lived in and limited accessibility to the public.

Led by knowledgeable guides or the family, you’ll uncover centuries of stories, from medieval knights and political intrigue to the elegant additions of the Tudor and Elizabethan eras. Wander past a tranquil moat, marvel at intricate plaster ceilings, oak-panelled chambers, and grand fireplaces that have stood the test of time, each detail reflecting the lives of generations who once shaped England’s story.

This manor played a pivotal role during the turbulence of the Civil War, when bold figures stood against the crown and secret meetings helped change the course of the nation. As you explore, these moments of defiance and resilience come vividly to life.

Recognized as a backdrop for acclaimed period films and dramas, the manor offers a cinematic setting that feels like stepping straight into history. Available on select days from April to November, this experience can also be combined with a full day of exploring the North Cotswolds, Oxford, or Blenheim Palace for a truly remarkable full day of exploring.
