Cheshire has some beautiful National Trust sites which you can read all about here. I have also included National Trust sites which I have visited while on holidays and travelling a bit more around Britain.




An historical estate with a neo-classical mansion, 50 acres of landscaped gardens, 1000 acres of parkland, a working farm and medieval Old Hall, an adventure playground and cafe all in the heart of Knutsford, Cheshire. With plenty of events on throughout the year it is a great place to visit.

Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6QN


This short walk explores the history of Mow Cop, taking in the ruins of the castle and the Old Man of Mow, a distinctive rock feature in the landscape.

53A High Street Mow Cop ST7 3PA




It is definitely the most child friendly National Trust property we have been around. The hall is filled with toys, games to play, and clear and colourful boards to read. The museum is a massive collection of toys and memorabilia from the past and great for children to get an insight into how their grandparents lived. The Children’s Country House at Sudbury.
