Capesthorne Hall

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Capesthorne is one of the premier country homes of Cheshire, with a history going back to the Domesday Book. The house is a magnificent Jacobean style building built in 1722. The Capesthorne family were Chief Foresters in the King's Forest of Macclesfield at that time, which meant they had the power to try and sentence poachers and enforce royal privilege in the area. Though the exterior of the house retains elements of its 18th century character, much remodeling was performed by the architect Salvin after a disastrous fire of 1861. The interior of the house boasts a fine collection of antique furniture, art, marble sculpture, and tapestries.
Garden: The hall is set in over 100 acres of parks and lakeside gardens. The gardens offer an arboretum (especially fine maples) woodland walks and a nature trail, herbaceous borders, and fine open fields and lawns. more details ...
