This fabulous country home and estate is family run and caters for all ages. Having arrived at the free car park we discovered Quackers cafe where we enjoyed a snack before moving on to the house. We went on an internal tour and enjoyed a beer tasting session with the owner. There is so much history attached to the buildings and as the owners are very much ‘hands on’ we felt like vip’s. Having enjoyed that we later moved on to the Thornbridge Brewery just down the road. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend a visit if you are anywhere near Bakewell.

We visited yesterday for the artisan market, which was lovely, and ended up doing the house tour while we were there! We had a wonderful day, the beer tasting and talk from Jim was great and the house tour was really interesting - Adam really brought the place to life with his stories as he showed us round. It’s clear that a strong sense of altruism runs through this place and all they do. We had visited the gardens and lovely cafe before and will definitely be back! Thank you for a great day!

First time visiting Thornbridge but it won't be the last. The house tour given by tour guide Kym was brilliant. She was very knowledgeable and funny. The hall has some very interesting history! One of the highlights was being able to have a go on the current owner's adult size rocking horse in the kitchen. Where else can you say that?! The gardens are beautiful and we can't wait to come back in summer when everything is in full bloom. Quakers cafe is lovely and clean with friendly staff. Highly recommend the cream tea (the scones are homemade and come as a choice of fruit or cheese). You can buy meat that comes from a smallholding on the estate. The beef, pork, sausage and bacon is some of the best we've ever tasted. The entire estate is dog friendly including the house tour so highly recommend a visit with your canine companion. There is plenty for children to do including a playground with games and meet the animals. Large car park with plenty of spaces. There was a Makers Market on while we visited where we were able to buy lots of artisan products and amazing food. There is a brewery on the estate which make their own beers, all of them being excellent in my opinion. You can even buy them in the cafe! Thank you for a fabulous day out Thornbridge 👏😁

Wow - thank you - sounds like you really get what we are trying to offer to all our lovely guests. Kim is great - great sense of humour and smilingly tolerates me when i interrupt her perfectly planned tours with my chit chat and banter. Emma

Go for the house tour. We had Adam the owners brother, he is excellent and deserves a pay rise Emma!!
It is very much a family home and that comes across, especially when you go into the kitchen and see the children's school timetable on the wall.
All the staff are just fantastic and the house and grounds are amazing. Well worth a visit and so looking forward to coming back again.

Thank you - I’m only hoping that Adam does not look at Tripadvisor - and notice your pay rise suggestion! If he does i am sure i think of something from our childhood where he might still owe ME money. I love the fact you mention James’s school timetable - it always surprises me about which details people pick up on. His Easter holidays will be sometime soon - and he can make quite an addition to the tours… the sight of an 8 year old racing around the great hall - playing football IN the kitchen or quietly (yeah) building his latest LEGO project - which is currently. - THE TITANIC - certainly adds something. Lots of recent visitors have been rather taken with his Titanic LEGO set - i would almost say that they had itchy fingers and wanted to place a few bricks. Just don’t let him catch you. Hmmmm - not the best idea - i learnt i had to sneak down at odd hours to do bits while he isn’t watching!!

What a day and what a tour. We left this amazing home feeling very humbled. We met Emma, the owner in her kitchen which was stunning, more particularly because it was very obviously the hub of the home. It’s a beautiful house with the most amazing gardens. The food in the cafe was outstanding. From Kym our tour guide, to the chats with gardeners and staff, everyone had a smile, they all love their jobs so that says a lot for their bosses. We had a wonderful long chat with Emma who was chatting to people in the cafe. She told us many stories of her life and how she came to own the house. We left with memories we’ll treasure forever. One of the very best days we’ve ever had viewing homes and houses.

Dear Enid - you and i shared some very special memories - thank you. You bought back to life my incredibly fond memories of Jaywick - ( which is near Clacton - Essex ) where I was born and spent lots of time with my grandmother Helen who lived there. You know that Jaywick is considered to be one of the most deprived areas of the Uk - but as a child living there i saw only the sea and the fun i had with my cousins as our grandmother organised us every day to do all the house hold chores and then released us onto the beach. Slot machines and maybe the chance that a random few pennies would drop out unexpectedly - ice cream time. It is there that i began to learn the price of everything and how to make very little go a long way. Thank you for sharing your story too. Emma xxx

Went for mothers day with my mum and 3 year old
The drive to the car park was stunning with small waterfalls and animals.
Went around the little garden shop with beautiful local crafs, Thai was really knowledge about the products and Thornbridge Estate also seems very happy.

It didnt stop raining however My little girl still loved fishing out the ducks playing in the sand pit so the puddle suit came in handy.

Managed to convince her to walk the gardens with the animal trail, perfect to get the kids around. Loads of secret areas, waterfalls, stepping stones, little bridges and caves that made it all the more of an adventure for kids also a future tree house in the making.

After this went for mothers day afternoom tea, couldnt fault it. Welcomed with a smile, I think it was the owner made a fuss out of my little girl she loved it, all the staff seemed happy making the atmosphere friendly and relaxed.

The other owner Emma came around each table telling story's of the Estate... loved the reason behind the ducks, if you want to know you'll have to go and find out.

Will definitely be back, and have already recomended to others
Keep up the kid friendly good work was a breath of fresh air.

Just had a fabulous guided tour of Thornbridge Hall by Adam who as a member of the family shared so much information with us in a very warm and welcoming way. Then I had a superb lunch in Quackers and bought some delicious products to take home- my husband said the best sausage roll he’s ever had!

Ooohhh - the sausage rolls - yup - we have addicted locals - who come in disguise to take away a few in one of our picnic boxes - dangerous - once you have had one - you are hooked. They are all made on the estate - our pigs, our woods, home made puff pastry - by my son Matthew. We bake them off in batches all day long and pop them in the hot counter cupboard. We once had a sausage roll riot when one person in the know turned up and just as a fresh batch of ten appeared and bought them all! Ooops. - i was surprised he got out of the cafe ‘unmugged’

Used to love visiting Thornbridge and walking around the peaceful gardens , but now nice calm environment has been spoilt by lge play area . The gardens don't seem as lovingly cared for and everything seems centred on catering for kids . Will be going to more peaceful gardens in future as not really enjoyed last two visits. Such a shame .

So sorry we are not for you - very surprised that you couldn’t find comfort and calm in the gardens. The children seem to mostly be in the children’s area and when i walk around the actual formal gardens i come across people relaxing on the hidden away benches and enjoying the peace and beauty of the gardens. Top tip - come for the day - bring your favourite book - find one of many secret spaces and spend the day dreaming. You might find me there too. Emma
