Lyme Park - National Trust

Last year, we decided to become members to the National Trust, as we all enjoy a bit of history and Titch loves being outdoors.  After seeing many friends post about the places that they go, we decided to purchase them and then we set off on our travels.

Choosing a place to visit is relative easy, especially with the National Trust App.  One of the first places that we decided to visit was Lyme Park in Stockport.  We chose here because we felt it offered lots for all the the family: the house for the parents (although they often do trails around for the kids so that they don't get fed up),  gardens to picnic in and , of course, a park for Titch to run around in a get out his energy.

Lyme was relative easy to get to and didn't take us too long from Staffordshire which is always a bonus.

Here are a few snaps and reviews taken around Lyme:

The house is just as beautiful inside as out with many rooms to explore, even Titch enjoyed learning about the history of the house and got involved with the dressing up.

Outside the grounds are stunning.  There are gardens to explore, a lake side walk, a small forest that you can weave your way through.  We ate out picnic on the lawns and then spent a good 1.5 hours explore the outside.





We even had time to play a few outside games that were set up on the lawn for visitors.





The grounds that Lyme are set on re vast and offer spectacular views of Manchester and there is also a park for big and little kids to explore.

It is definitely worth the visit and is still one of our favourite National Trust Places to visit.
