Excellent info about Open House, will be visiting many of the houses mentioned including Linley Sambourne House – noticed on the website that they have a free flow this year and open until 4pm.

I do recommend volunteering one day and get a Volunteer priority entry card.

That’s worth knowing Michael. It would be great if they can get it up and running so it’s open all the time – or weekends or the summer or something. It truly is a great view and on Open House they only give you five minutes because of the number of people so although no access is sad this year, figners crossed for next.

Sadly looks like the inside of Sevendroog Castle is not actually going to be open to the public. From their website:

“Open House on Sunday 23 September 10am-3pm.
Talks on the hour about the history of the building and future plans. The castle interior will not be open but the trustees will be able to provide an update about the restoration. Information stall and refreshments”

However from the same website I see that refurbishment is planned to start (and finish) next year!
