Copped Hall Mansion and Gardens

Copped hall open day was advertised locally . I wasn't sure if it would be boring, I was really surprised . Many people have heard stories of copped hall in need of massive renovation , sadly special places such as theses are left to deteriorate. So what is so special, firstly when you attend it is very old school, the lovely lady at the gate greets you and wishes you a good day, the volunteers know each other and are more like a family all joined with the common purpose of saving copped hall for the future.you can buy plants grown and propagated here at a reduced cost. The building has huge proportions and the historical facts un ravelled the guided tour.schools are attending to show the younger generation how great and important this place is. The really good bits, acres and acres of land and gardens being developed by enthusiasts, the kitchen garden is amazing I was blown away by the level of dedication shown by individuals and the pride of the supporters by the achievements. The gate houses are privately owned as well as some other outbuildings that have been renovated to sell in order to raise more funds, an amazing backdrop to the skyline copped hall is a Phoenix raising being rebuilt for others to enjoy and treasure, truly an amazing place.i have . Joined as a supporter which means I can go back and am entitled to free entry,every penny will make a difference I'm bringing my family next time in order to share the amazing view, and story of copped hall well worth a visit , bring packed lunch and revel in the history on our doorstep.

Having seen Copped Hall from the M25 when it was a derelict shell I really wanted to see it after noticing the restoration from the motorway. The website was easy to find and we decided to take a closer look on one of the open days. The house is beautiful even though restoration is ongoing, the tour guide was knowledgeable, and the gardens a complete joy at this time of year. It's well worth a visit if you like old houses and gardens at only £8 per person, they also have an open garden once a month which we will be making a return visit to. The gardens are huge, complete with a walled garden and hothouses, also being restored. The whole site is a credit to the hard work of the volunteers, I only wish I had had longer to linger! But I will definitely be making a return visit
