      We spent this afternoon here with the girls.Our first visit this year.It was busy,as we expected,but the girls did the quiz.Finding animals for the youngest and answering questions for the eldest.I always love the view as you walk up to the Hall.It stands magnificently.The Long Gallery is one of my favourite rooms but the girls like the Grand Bedroom with its' four poster bed.Today they dressed up in Tudor clothes then tried out the bed.There was certainly a lot of giggles from behind the curtains.Downstairs they made a Mothers' Day card using printing ink.The volunteers here are superb with the children.Whilst their prints were drying we went outside,Koi Carp swimming in the Moat.The girls threw beanbags at The Jack 'O' Lenten.The Tudors threw at him when they were frustrated with fasting for Lent.The girls threw beanbags,the Tudors used to use stones.Thank you to everyone for a lovely day.

      A really special house with loads of character and pretty garden. The house is one of the finest examples of its kind in the country. Top quality offering as you would expect with the National Trust. Great in the summer but also lovely at Christmas when they decorate it with greenery. Well worth a visit.

      Brilliant property. Helpful friendly staff throughout. Guides very informative. Food very good. Worth a visit. Wrap up warm no heating but well worth staying and seeing everything.

      If you like Tudor buildings then this is a must. Looking from the front of the building (all black and white, after being messed about by the Victorians) there isn't a straight line to be seen anywhere. We entered by the arch over the moat and we were greeted by a very friendly young man and then we went straight to the café. It was a cold day and the jam sponge and custard was delicious. We went on the guided tour and gained some very interesting facts about the building and the family who had owned it. See if you can find the dog kennel in the court yard. The staff in the café and also around the building are very approachable and will give any information you need.This is a National Trust property and a lot of money has been spent on keeping the building as it should be for us all to see and appreciate. The NOT Garden at the back is very interesting.

      I thought that the National Trust entry price was quite dear for what was there- but the free guided tour was well worth waiting for and made us realise the full history of this amazing house- and the Moreton family who continually added bits to the house as they climbed the social ladder. A word of warning- it is on a cold site and it is very cold inside the house- but the hot drinks and cream teas in the tearoom afterwards soon warmed us up- a very interesting afternoon.

      Have visited here about 6 times since joining the Nat Trust last year. My 8-year old daughter loves it! She loves the house and the quiz which any body can do and which keeps the children interested in the property. My daughters' absolute favourite things are the very hands-on events which see the staff dressed as Tudor ladies making items such as soaps and candles and the costumes, which anybody may try are great for photo opportunities. We love the building which has a fascinating history, the tour guides are excellent and really know their stuff! The gardens are not overly large, but great at any time of the year. The only niggle i think is the cost of food, especially tea and cake, although the cakes are delicious, they are, i feel, overpriced, but in the summer, it's ok to take a snack and sit out in the sun to eat it. Little Moreton Hall is a brilliant day out with something different year round, visit now!

      With nothing planned for a Saturday morning, we got the National Trust Handbook out to look for something to do. Having never been to Little Moreton Hall before and with no expectations we decided to give it a try. From the moment we arrived we noticed that all the staff/volunteers we very friendly and helpful (not the usual grumpy old so and so's that you often find at National Trust properties).There was a free tour of the house starting as we arrived and we decided to join it. The tour was very interesting but with two restless young children we were soon forced to leave the tour and make our own way around the house. Our 4 year old raced around looking for the animals hidden in each room on the children's trail and with knowledgable guides dotted around the house we managed to pick up plenty of information despite leaving the guided tour.There are very few furnishings at Little Moreton Hall but the timbers of the building really do the talking... its a very interesting old house and well worth a visit.After a couple of hours in the house we made our way to the tea room. Again, not the standard overpriced National Trust fayre. The staff were very helpful and the food was fantastic.All in all, we had a great day out. I would have given Little Moreton Hall a 5 star rating but I did notice on the way in that non-members are charged £10 per adult. If we were not NT members I would have thought it quite an expensive day out!

      Despite this being almost on my doorstep, it was my first visit.The hall itself is under continual renovation, not that 'work in progress' was obtrusive. It is so full of character and surprises that I don't want to spoil them all, here is one... some of the flooring on the first floor is concrete...... that was a surprise to myself as I had no idea I'd see this in such a manor house. The National Trust are doing an excellent job of maintaining and renovating (much of the Hall you see as you approach has had the 'horrid Victorian' black and what removed and is back to the original natural wood with cream/buff plaster work inbetween.There is a very nice cafe selling good quality food and a 'typical' National Trust gift shop at the main entrance.Little Morton Hall is an iconic manor house that is well worth a visit. I hope, like myself, you'll spend several very enjoyable hours there.

      We spent a very enjoyable afternoon at this historic property. It's a fascinating building and it's great to learn about the history of the building as you walk around. We had a tasty lunch of delicious soup and sandwiches at The Pantry. Further indication of which room you are in, would help in the self guided tours of the hall. The children loved the old fashioned games to play in the Great Hall.

      We took some southern friends who were staying with us for a few days out for the afternoon. It is hard to find somewhere to take them that they haven't got bigger and better in London. They absolutely loved Little Moreton Hall, as we do too, the guide was excellent, very knowledgeable, willing and able to answer any of our questions. We have visited several times and certainly will again. The Hall is unique, extremely well maintained and an important historical building - an added bonus is the delicious food in the restaurant. If you have not been there I highly recommend you go asap but do go round with a guide to get the maximum enjoyment.
