From the very moment of the Hall's conception, entertaining guests has been key, and under Thomas William Coke ‘of Norfolk', Holkham became known for holding large scale events, where up to 500 guests would be in attendance. How were these guests accommodated? What did they eat? And how were they entertained? If you are arriving by car, please be aware that a parking charge of £5 applies (redeemable against purchases of £30 or over in our gift shop). Dogs other than assistance dogs are not permitted on this tour. This event lasts for approximately 90 minutes

Price: £25, including free-flow admission to the Walled Garden and Holkham Stories Experience on the same day.

Location: Holkham Hall
