This was an interesting place to visit but only giving 3 stars because of the unkept garden. House was lovely, and it is free entry, but now that I've been once I probably would not go back. Ok maybe for a quick half hour stop.
Excellently preserved historic house with sublime woodwork across the first floor rooms. In places more signage might have been welcome but for free entry it is understandable. It’s not huge so expect to visit for between 30 and 90 mins. Recommend if you have an interest in traditional interiors, wealthyish historic homes, or want to enter a bygone era for the afternoon. Enjoy!
A well preserved home built in the early sixteenth century and added on throughout the centuries. At one time was used as a reform school for girls in the Victorian era. The rooms were a bit sparse, though beautiful. I think more information posted throughout would be helpful. You do get an info sheet upon entering which was helpful but not very engaging. Spent about 45 minutes there.
If you're interested in history or design or old houses or just in people, then you should visit this fascinating house. The whole building is interesting but the oak room is magnificent. An original oak panelled room from 1570. If there's a guide fella sat in the corner when you visit, ask him about the house and the room. The information he has to share with you will transform your visit and give you a new perspective on the city. The place is owned and managed by Bristol City Council and it's free to get in though donations are welcome. If you visit Bristol you should go, if you live in Bristol, why haven't you been?
This museum is in Park Row next to the Trenchard Street car park The museum is FREE but donations would be gratefully received The museum is open from 1st April to 31st December each year and Saturdays to Tuesdays from 11.00 to close for the rest of the year I was given an information sheet which does tell you about the building and there is a garden at the back Not really suitable if you are wheelchair bound or have a pushchair as soon as you enter you go down a flight of stairs and there is no disabled access The rooms, ceilings and paintings are great and is all part of Bristol's history and is well worth a visit The museum is over 2 levels as the 3rd is not open for the public Donations can be given either at the reception or at the in a box There is a small shop for purchases by the entrance
Beautiful and historic building to visit. Worth visiting and so much history along with it!Visited onPublic holiday
Hidden by other buildings this is a real gem in Bristol. A fine example of a Tudor home in excellent condition with oak panel rooms. The guides here are very friendly and helpful.
Who knew that I could exist for several decades and not know of this hidden gem within Bristol! One literally enters the building via a door that looks just like any other door - and could be easily missed if not for signage. This place boasts of being one of the oldest interior rooms to exist in Bristol, and with the many portraits hung upon its walls, glaring down at you in various stages of melancholy, it's not hard to believe. Yet, the staff are extremely accommodating, in their willingness to put up with our tour group's shenanigans of costume play to confirm, these were provided outfits, not illegal museum raids. While I was greatly impressed by the amount of bonnets to try out, what left the greatest mark in my mind was the miniscule courtyard to the rear of the building. It was like a lost fragment of a previous time. A fraction of heritage whose charm is added to by the fact it is so hidden and therefore not swarming with visitors. It is also free - regardless of history, this fact tempted me to visit here in the first place. Completely worth it.
A small but fascinating building/ museum which reflects part of Bristols Elizabethan heritage. The guides a very helpful and are informative about the history of the site and the building itself. Audio visual guides are available.
Lovely. Lots of attention to detail. Very interesting. And free! We just made a donation. Recommended.
