Day Visit to Chavenage House

Our next Day Visit will be on Thursday 26th November to the Elizabethan manor, Chavenage House. The day will begin with refreshments, before a guided tour by a member of the family, followed by a home cooked lunch in the ballroom.
Chavenage is a wonderful Elizabethan house of mellow grey Cotswold stone and tiles. The approach aspect of Chavenage is virtually as it was left by Edward Stephens in 1576. Only two families have owned the house; the present owners (Lowsley-Williams) since 1891 and the Stephens family before them.
Inside the house there are many rooms of interest, especially the 17th-century tapestries. The house and grounds have been extensively used as a TV and film location, including featuring as Trenwith in the hugely popular Poldark.


The cost of this trip is £59.50. To book, please click HERE
