Top Ten Family-Friendly Historic Houses by Abigail Flanagan

"A deer park since 1290, Tatton has stacks for families. The Mansion’s state rooms and servants’ quarters provide starkly contrasting views of 18th century life; while up at the Old Hall, costumed guided tours take you way back to Tudor times. Best of all for children, though, is the hands-on fun at the 1930s working rare breeds farm. A free, downloadable booklet will inspire young’uns to explore the 1,000 acres – and you can bring bikes or hire them onsite. Plus, from March 23rd to September 1st, 2013, Tatton celebrates the brilliance of Beatrix Potter, with rare watercolours on display and a huge range of family events."
