Not really suitable for people with powered wheelchairs or mobility scooters.

On entering the main hall we were greeted by a very knowledgeable guide who could also tell a good story and bring the property alive. There are so many little details to marvel over in this property, watch for the little windows between the rooms so the servants can check on their employers. It's well a if you're in the area. It's a very old Manor with an history. There's but well kept gardens. If you are in the area it's a look. Visited here yesterday 13th July. Well I'll be honest, this property was from the outside. But inside I didn't like it at all. Just such an odd feeling and gave me gooseb. I felt I couldn't breath especially when I went upstairs, the air was thick. I couldn't wait to get out, I just didn't like how the felt. Not a property I will be visiting again.. A but manor house. Although it only takes a short while to look around the , it is well it. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful. Tea room , again small, but excellent service and the usual high quality refreshments. National Trust place. The are stunning and the is interesting. I love that the was staffed by volunteers who had lots of knowledge and facts but don't force it upon you! They clearly love what they do and that's really apparent. There is. A teeny tiny second hand book store which is a browse. The coffee is nice too and had a selection of drinks and cakes. Gorgeous restored with history. Original furniture and fittings let you see life in the past. Helpful guides. Pretty gardens, cafe One of the smaller national trust property's but deffinatly a visit. All volunteers very friendly and helpfull. coffee / cafe which sold enough choice in drink and food. Nice little 2nd hand book of which I found something of interest to buy. Plenty of outside seating if you decide to have your food or drink there. House is but atleast you get to see everything as no areas shut for restoration..volunteers on the day we visited were so friendly and a delight to talk to. Car park was too full when we arrived but they opened another section(overflow car park) which had a lot more spaces. Lytes Cary Manor is a pleasant place to visit, especially if you enjoy and a bit of quiet history. The are well-kept and offer a nice variety of planting styles, though they're not especially large or elaborate. The chapel is but has a peaceful, historic feel to it—worth a look while you're there. Overall, it's a calm and attractive spot for a short visit, best enjoyed on a sunny day. All the volunteers in the were very knowledgeable about the of the periphery and the people who had once lived there... We also enjoyed walking around the gardens... it is a lot of work to manage, even at this time of year... Very pleasant welcome from NT staff on arrival in car park. Sadly the was about to be shut up for the day but we did have time to use the cafe. Visiting NT tea rooms used to be a worthwhile experience sadly no more. They lack atmosphere comfort & delicious options. Why must we drink from a paper cup with a dangling teabag & a wooden stick & an each a slice of over chilled sponge . NT you have pared everything back too far & destroyed any uniqueness your properties used to offer. We stayed at Lytes Manor over New Year, and wow—what an incredible place. When we first arrived, we all felt a little overwhelmed, but after the first night it truly felt like home. The was fully equipped with everything we needed, and our group of ten was well accommodated, ranging from four people aged 40+, four 19-year-olds, and two mid-teens. On arrival, we were warmly welcomed with a welcome basket and a £40 National Trust gift card, which was a thoughtful touch. The grounds were fantastic—we enjoyed the public walking routes as well as simply exploring the estate itself. We would all happily return and would definitely recommend Lytes Manor to other families. Really 😍 .. staff were all very helpful and polite .. only comment tea room was very and was not a suitable size for push chair or wheelchair users at busy times - but plenty of seating outside (I'm not surprised the tea room is popular as the cakes, scones and coffee were delicious) but the and grounds are lovely, plenty of parking.
