Amazing day out for the Christmas event art installation 'Animal Crackers' in the house. It was such a fun experience making our way round the house enjoying the story of the animals taking over and interacting with the themes of each room. What a refreshing change to be at a National Trust property and not to have to be constantly worrying about the kids touching things! Here they were actively encouraged to touch, sit down and get involved with the various scenes which included Christmas dinner with the animals, relaxing with cows, karaoke with badgers, taking care of eggs and more. A brilliant experience and huge credit to the artist that came up with the idea and all those that brought it to life. We followed up with a windy walk to the top of the hill which gave fantastic views and lots of space for the kids to run around. If you get chance to visit before the exhibition closes on 24th December don't miss it. We'll be back to experience everything else that Lyme park has to offer, having been before there's also a very good playground for the kids which we didn't have time for today, various cafés, a stream to play in and an abundance of walks! This is the best National Trust site we've visited in the area.

It's £6 for an adult to get in.. National trust members are free. A thin driveway takes you to an admission box, then drive to the car park further down on the right. TIP - do NOT go at weekends, or go early. The space between the entrance and the admission box is very small and cars queue up. They even then queue all the way down the main road and cause the road to come to a standstill. There needs to be a filter lane, but there isn't. Go EARLY or not at all !! It gets very very busy. It's a beautiful place. .you can get a free map, and see its very big. You can go for a nice long walk around the grounds. Dogs are welcome but on leads. Be careful as there are cows in some fields. You can visit the house, The gardens, The grounds The cage ( a tall building on the hill, with views for miles ) A cafe A shop, 2nd hand book store There are 3 cafes, but the Ale cellar one does not accept dogs. There's also a hut outside doing wood fired pizza !! The grounds are really well kept, and thoroughly beautiful. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

A real jewel in the National Trust crown. As you can probably see in photos, it is a great looking place with plenty of land to explore and areas to visit. You will definitely need a full day to get the most out of Lyme as there is way more to do than the house. This house seems to be more interactive than most National Trust places. For one, I've not seen a Billiards table that you are allowed to play at an N.T. place before. You can also dress up in period costume and walk around the house, too, and why wouldn't you want to? While we were there, they had an Easter hunt on, too. If it all gets too much, then there are plenty of places to stop off for food. I think I counted at least 4, but there is likely to be more as we did miss a little bit. The staff assisting in the disabled parking area were so very helpful too. While this is definitely going to be a place that National Trust fans will definitely enjoy, it is also going to be enjoyed by most ages too.

Very nice attraction to visit, big house on a large estate. The rooms are nice to see with some unique decor especially the wood work around the house. Some of turn wooden chairs and tables have been specially designed. They have an interesting collections of clocks, with the mechanisms removed and on display so you can see how each clock was made. They have an opportunity to dress up in costume in the dressing room as the owners did back in their days. They have 2 cafes, a cellar cafe which is small and the timber yard cafe which is a lot bigger and outdoor seating. They have a good selection food but it is a little expensive. They are plenty of benches around the estate especially next to the car park and along the path to the house. Great place to walk your dog and there is a reservoir along the walk to the Timber Yard cafe with a large family of ducks. Overall a nice place to visit if you are in Manchester or Cheshire region.
