Description
Only one mile from
Hartland Quay, Hartland Abbey lies across a narrow, sheltered
valley which winds its way to the spectacular Atlantic Coast.
Within a designated ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ visitors
may wander around the beautiful gardens and grounds which lead
to the rocky cove. Peacocks and guinea fowl roam at will, whilst
donkeys and Black Welsh Mountain sheep graze the Old Deer Park.
Hartland Abbey
is the lived-in family home of the Stucley family. Although it
was built in the 12th century, remaining as a monastery for 400
years and passing through the female line three times, it has
never been sold. Consequently, it contains collections of
pictures, furniture and porcelain which have accumulated
over many generations. The story of the Abbey mirrors local and
national history at every turn. It has a friendly and lived-in
atmosphere, so often absent in many of our nation’s historic houses,
a point continually remarked upon by those who visit us. | Admission Charges: 2012 |
