UPDATE:
We are pleased to offer a tour for people who would like to know more about Dalemain and the family who have lived here since the 1670s. Our expert guides will bring history to life as they take you around the courtyard and the outside of the mansion, before bringing you into the historic gardens. Pointing out architecture and artefacts never before have spotted on a visit to Dalemain, they will regale visitors with stories of the Hasell family, and the development of both the mansion and estate through the centuries.
This special tour is not to be missed!
Tours last approximately 45 minutes, and are strictly limited to ensure visitor safety. Please book your tour online and collect your ticket in the shop no less than 10 minutes prior to the start time.
