Speke Hall is one of the most famous Tudor manors in Britain and provides an ideal afternoons' escape from Liverpool. The atmospheric interior of this rambling house spans many periods. Being originally built in 1530, its Great Hall and priest hole date from Tudor times.
The property has fine Jacobean plasterwork and intricately carved furniture. A fully equipped Victorian kitchen and servants' hall enable visitors to see 'behind the scenes'.
