Planning for days out in Lancashire?
Written by David Lee
If you’ve made plant for days out in Lancashire, I would recommend visiting Samlesbury Hall, which is one of the amazing staley homes of Lancashire history. This place is really a heaven for history lovers, where the past meets the present and makes it a perfect destination for a family day out. Here you will get the opportunity to see secret, witchcraft and centuries of glorifying history throughout their archive rooms. Just think of enjoying a sip of coffee or taking lunch in the award winning restaurant located here. You can browse through the antique rooms to seek out the hidden gem. Otherwise visit the shop and take home a souvenir. There are lots of things to do at this place such as walking the grounds, feeding the rescued hens, throwing a penny into the fountain and making a wish.
Due to its rich and great cultural history, this place is a major spot for various events and function programmes where you can tour the Hall with our fabulous Tour Guides, enjoy a theatre production or murder mystery, experience an evening ghost hunt, or welcome your own guests at a wedding that is, entirely yours.
Built is 1325, this hall is amazingly timbered black and white medieval house. This hall is managed in such a wonderful way to serve it as a treat to visitors. The current building and grounds are administered by a registered charity known as the Samlesbury Hall Trust (Charity number 526052), whose aim is to preserve the Hall for the people of the area and visitors to Lancashire.
The Hall is open to the public every day, except Saturdays and occasional Fridays, when it is closed for weddings. On this site today, you will discover an ancient, magnificently preserved manor house and gardens, with a colourful history and a wide-ranging programme of year-round events and activities.
Looking for more places for days out Lancashire? Samlesbury Hall is situated between Preston and Blackburn at the heart of Lancashire’s travel networks, with easy access from the M6 and M65 motorway networks.
