blickling - location

Nobody ever forgets their first sight of Blickling.  The breath-taking red-brick mansion and ancient yew hedges sit at the heart of a magnificent garden and historic park in the beautiful Bure meadows.

The story of the estate unfolds over a thousand years.  The landscape with its hedges and narrow tree-lined lanes has changed little over the centuries and is quintessentially Norfolk. 

Blickling’s owners have used the estate as a place of quiet refuge, while playing their part on the world’s political stage.  Philip Kerr, 11th Marquis of Lothian, left this estate to the National Trust in 1940, and he’s vital to its story.  Without him, it’s unlikely that Blickling would still be around for you to explore, along with many other places that you love.

Blickling has always been a place of pilgrimage and tranquillity. Today, it continues to extend the warmest of welcomes to all who visit.

The fantastic parkland, overlooking the lake with the Hall in the background has hosted our concerts for seven years now and we are delighted to be returning in 2018.
