Have you ever visited a historic property and longed to go through that door marked ‘private’?
Now you can at Preston Manor!
This very special tour takes you upstairs, downstairs and backstairs of this beautiful Edwardian manor house. You will go down into cellars and up concealed servants’ staircases, into bedrooms, corridors and kitchens not on the public route. You will hear new information that is not available on standard house tours, and is not covered by the guidebooks, and visit the 1905 extension.
Discover the secrets and surprises concealed behind the everyday face of this intriguing one-time family home. Tea and biscuits included.
