Discover Kentwell Hall, a stunning mellow redbrick house with two forward wings of the early 16th C, surrounded by a broad moat. Its main features are its impressive, little-altered exterior elevations and its separate 15th C part half-timbered service building and the interior shows the changes made by successive owners.

The Gardens reflect how many people may imagine an old-fashioned Country House Garden. Dominated by the Hall, original brick walls and moats, and perhaps the largest stand of Cedar trees in England with an abundance of topiary, large and small.

Our traditional working farm, is home to Kentwell’s rare breed farm animals. Make time to meet our rare breed pigs, sheep, cows and horses, and say hello to our miniature Shetland ponies.

Kentwell hosts a variety of exciting events throughout the year, with events at Easter, Halloween and Christmas, as well as magic weekends, live historical recreations, and school history visits. These events provide engaging and educational experiences for all ages, making Kentwell a vibrant destination for entertainment and learning.

Kentwell offers a beautiful and versatile Wedding venue for your special day. With a range of stunning settings to choose from, including traditional formal areas in the House, to our beautiful rustic barns to our relaxed Woodland Retreat. The historic Holy Trinity Church adds charm to any wedding, with picturesque walks back to the manor.

Kentwell also caters to corporate events, with flexible spaces like the Great Hall The parkland and gardens are ideal for summer parties and team-building activities.
