About

16th Century manor house built by Sir William Petre, Secretary of State to four Tudor monarchs, and still occupied by his descendants. The house substantially retains its original form and appearance (including 2 priests hiding places) and contains furniture, pictures and memorabilia accumulated over the centuries.

The Hall stands in open countryside, one mile from the village of Ingatestone and substantially retains its original Tudor form and appearance with its mullioned windows, high chimneys, crow-step gables and oak-panelled rooms and is surrounded by ten acres of enclosed gardens comprising extensive lawns, walled garden and stew pond.

About

16th Century manor house built by Sir William Petre, Secretary of State to four Tudor monarchs, and still occupied by his descendants. The house substantially retains its original form and appearance (including 2 priests hiding places) and contains furniture, pictures and memorabilia accumulated over the centuries.

The Hall stands in open countryside, one mile from the village of Ingatestone and substantially retains its original Tudor form and appearance with its mullioned windows, high chimneys, crow-step gables and oak-panelled rooms and is surrounded by ten acres of enclosed gardens comprising extensive lawns, walled garden and stew pond.

You will be welcome to enjoy an afternoon, on one of our normal opening days, touring the eight principal rooms on display in the house or exploring the extensive grounds. Alternatively, you may prefer to bring a group for a private guided tour (which must be pre-booked) at some other time.

The house and grounds can also be made available for a wide variety of social and commercial events – weddings, receptions, dinners, concerts and plays, fairs and trade promotions as well as being regularly used for film and TV locations. Notable credits in this regard include Lovejoy, BBC TV’s Bleak House, Horrible Histories and episodes of The Windsors and The Crown.

No photography in house. Suitablity for the Disabled: Partial. WCs. Guided Tours: By arrangement. Suitability for Dogs: Guide dogs only.
