Deans Court Guided Tour
Location details available on ticket, Wimborne, Dorset, BH21 1AS
This tour brings to life the 1,300-year story of a manor house at the centre of a rural English community. Beginning with an introduction to the history of the house and the Hanham family, visitors are guided through the rooms where 500 years of ancestral portraits still grace the walls. Visitors will experience the history of the house as it passed from the Saxon Church to a family of adventurers, politicians, churchmen and soldiers.

Accessibility details
Generally, access to the historic house comes with its share of challenges, especially as the building is so old. Access into the house is not level and there is no lift inside and it is surrounded by loose gravel that can also be difficult to traverse safely. Regrettably mobility scooters are not permitted inside the house, as they are too large and lack the level of manoeuvrability needed for safe entry and exit.
Additional information
Admission strictly to holders of valid tickets. There is no entry to the grounds on the day for anyone without a valid ticket. No onsite parking, so please use public car parks.
