Attraction Category: Historic House and Gardens
The Children’s Country House is a place to have fun with history.
The Hall
The first heritage experience of its kind . Originally home to the Vernon family, there are over 12 rooms currently open to the public across three levels. Created with and for children, this experience aims to spark a lifelong interest in heritage. It will encourage confidence and curiosity while learning about the collections and history at Sudbury Hall.
The Museum
Explore the different spaces in The Children’s Country House Museum, which celebrate the escapades and challenges of childhood across the centuries. Be creative and curious as you get stuck in with activities to bring your experience to life. You don’t have to be young, only young at heart to enjoy the fun.
The Garden
Outdoor adventures await in the Garden. Enjoy walks through the historic parterre which echos formal planting plans, and colourful displays supporting a variety of pollinators. Stroll by the lake and explore new spaces that have been opened up, as we continue to work with children to further develop the Garden and decide what the future should look and feel like.
Eating at The Children’s Country House
