Historical Tudor house full of mystique and beautiful decorative details. The restored ceiling and original wall paintings are a must see.

This is my new favourite place! This building and its grounds are absolutely stunning! We arrived around 12pm sunday and there was parking chaos as there isn't many spaces but we got parked in the end (prices in the photo) also note you can pay by phone but i had zero signal. Tickets can be bought at the visitors center to the house £6.50 adult and under 16s free. The staff were lovely. The ladies that greeted us on entry to the house were really welcoming and very lovely. The house is gorgeous, each room beautifully decorated and seeped in history, truly fantastic. The grounds has a playground, duck pond with lots of ducks, a cafe with an ice cream counter (single wafer cone £2.95 or in the visitors center £2 a tub). There are toilets that were very clean. Lots of picturesque places for a picnic

Such a lovely old Tudor mansion with grassy dog walks, a kids playground and a lovely coffee shop with particularly good soft serve ice cream ?

Amazing place! So well preserved! Learning about the building, all the changes and renovations that were done there, the families who owned the place - felt really eye opening.

The Chapel is a beautiful building with coloured glass windows. It was lovely in presentation where religious service and weddings took place.. There was also a good variety of objects including an altar and a fire place.

Banqueting Room

This room inside Bramhall Hall was used to bring guests together and to dine together. The art work in this room was exquisite and it featured elements of Stone Henge. It complemented well with the furniture of the room.

The Solar Room

This room had incredible high ceilings and amazing chandeliers hanging on the roof. There were some nice items inside some cabinets including fine chinaware.

Entertainment Room

This room was where the family living at Bramhall Hall during the old times would entertain guests. The room is of a decent size and included a pool table. The paintings on the walls were superb and had an oriental feel that was unique.

The Servants Rooms

These rooms were detailed and had the essential items too. Some servants would share a room. This was the case in one of the rooms where there was a number of beds with brushes, a simple toilet and wash bowl. Some of the items were tactile and it was a lovely getting to touch them to get a feel of their texture.

Servants would work at 6am till 10pm.

Dining Room

The dining room was impressive. The dining table was lovely with all the plates, bowls and cutlery organised on the table. There were also lovely artwork that surrounds the room. When the Davenport/Neville families would dine in this room whilst enjoying the views of the garden. A lovely pleasant room.

The Kitchen

The Kitchen gave moments of nostalgia with the old kitchen utensils that you would recognise during the old times. It also had a machine in which they cleaned clothes. It was great.

Apparently one of the finest examples of Tudor building in UK. Lots of rooms to explore by yourself. £6.50 entry fee. Small parking charge too but you can park in street directly opposite over the main road.

This property is looked after by Stockport County Council and is quite staggering . Its mainly tudor and is free entry if you are a Historic house member. Staff we met were all pleasant. There are info boards and touch screens in each room that shows interesting videos and pertinent info about the items in the room. There is a cafe on site and a large area of parkland . Car park is reasonably small and may get full at weekends. A property of the highest order

Pamela Hill

Beautiful place lovely house set within lovely grounds.
Parking is very limited unfortunately
The cafe serves lovely food with friendly staff but is on the small side.
This is a very popular place for people to visit so parking is a major issue, an early start or midweek visit when not as busy probably better.
