Horseshoe and Longeared Bats have been around in the mansion for many many years, and occasionally visit the attic bedrooms especially in the late summer and autumn. We cannot guarantee you will see them, but if you ring in advance we can let you know whether or not they have been seen this year ? bring your camera ? you may be lucky.
