Scolton Manor — Attraction in Spittal

All I heard was this phrase throughout my visit. "Well, they are all volunteers." I can't tell you how much I don't care. Brown sign! 2 miles away, as per normal disappears. Entrance is hidden from drivers for some strange reasons. Let's go high-tech, Google pin, this is placed on top of the huge house because putting it on the invisible entrance would make too much common sense. Disabled parking is the furthest from the machine by half a mile. However, a rude little man with a face and voice that screams I didn't get beaten enough as a child because mummy protected me. Informed me that we could pay for it right their with the house ticket. The place that had been devoid of any human, sign's information to say the cost of anything, or said parking fee. For the last 10 minutes He didn't introduce himself or explain a thing. However, he made us watch as he decanted his thermaso of tea into a cup so small a nat would be coughing. His general demeanour was of the lord of the manor and being very British about allowing the scum in. These people offend me, at the best of times. A German phrase "A face that cries out of a fist in it." Came to mind Joe public aren't as strong willed as I, might oblige the self righteous little gland, and put him in his place. However, he really did give an air of not being welcome at this home. I thought everything was extremely expensive, considering 2 of the 9 bedrooms were on view. You will never say the word wing. Let alone east or west. The collection is a mess or random tat, span vast spans of time. Some sort of games are played, but like everything the idiot was supposed to say with the tickets, he didn't. Do not enter thinking you will learn one thing. One whole room at the front had snap shots of very common creatures again, no signs explaining why. The phrase I opened with, in the defence of these people, you should have said several times. If you go, you better get used to it. The restaurant is very expensive, but the food is fair. Just give your order to the right person. The boy I attempted to give my order to almost had a fit. The wall garden. What a mess, its months behind, and the stripped beds ie well over ⅓ should have been ploughed by machine in the winter very deep, because all the stone is on top, soil is practically dead, the box is struggling. Lol, they have done nothing at all. Foundation to any garden is the soil. You can see everything is screaming for food. Put your cotton underwear in that soil they will be there 3 years. Old Farmers trick should be eaten in 4 to 5 weeks in good soil. If these volunteers were amateur dramatic Society, they would be a laughing stock of the village. However, because these people attend a good cause, we are supposed to say they are volunteers. So is the Coast Guard, I remind you, half the fire service. I'm sorry but I think this place is pointless for all ages. Badly organised and some of the people would be better staying at home. Educational ha! Even the school room failed to educate. Much better places deserve your support. This deserves to become a park for walking the dog with a restaurant. It was the only worthwhile thing that had any money and logic to it. BTW, don't use their Google pin. You will go through the village 4 miles away in a loop. Bet that village is loving the traffic.

I might just be a little bit harsh. Allowing one toad to ruin my visit. But it's two weeks on, and the toad is still upsetting me, which is unusual... kind of shows what a colossal A hat he was. Comedy show museum of everything? "Following me!" Only a few will understand the reference. My mind was in a fit of giggles. Brigstock knows his people. Lol House is not worthy at any ticket price. Walled garden professional help needs to be called. But I hear the walks are great. Remember, it's a phrase. Keep your fists in your pockets. Just use your words. But I'm sure he will be known to all. Sure, mummy is on the board and keeps the oaf in place. Finger painting is in the basement sure it was his. Organised events are...

We've been here countless times and never thought to review it. It really it a fab, inexpensive place to visit. You only pay for the car park and the rest is good old fashioned family fun. There are cracking playground areas, zip wire, swings etc and in the forest as you follow the trail is a new wooden fortress for the kids. Fab. There's a great cycle trail and a fun bumpy cycle area too. You can visit the manor house for a fee. Lovely cafe for meals and drinks. There's a walled garden also and other nature things at the top bear the Manor house. My only slight grumble was only 1 toilet was open in the cafe area in total for men, women and kids. Not sure they cannot open the toilets as I've been to lots of places with toilets that are open as normal. The other thing was the plaques with information on in the forest, were blank and some of the musical instruments were broken which is a shame as they wouldn't take much to fix. In all a lovely place to visit for...
