Step back in time almost 500 years to experience everyday life in Tudor Suffolk.
See, hear, touch and smell 16th Century England brought to life by over 200 of Kentwell’s skilled Living Historians, working and playing throughout the buildings and grounds of the Kentwell manor.
With the crafts, cooking, food, music and dancing – as well as the gossip that accompanies the life of a small village – you will travel back in time and spend a whole day lost in Tudor England.
The site is extensive. Though guided by a map visitors may be surprised at what they come across. Entry to the event also includes entry to the House, and to acres of beautiful family-friendly country house, gardens and parkland.
11am to 5pm
Gardens open 11am to 5pm and house open 11am to 4pm.
