Amazing Georgian ballrooms and chandeliers, and free to visit. Highly recommended. Only takes 10 minutes to visit. Cafe and toilets on site.

I really liked this National Trust owned building. The National Trust don't run this the local council do, it's free for all to see it but if you want to also see the fashion museum you need to pay. They still have a guidebook. We parked on the park and ride and got the bus in so parking wasn't much of an issue. It was easy to find. I really thought the chandeliers were breathtaking. Really stunning. I was able to go into each of the room (although one was being used for a function so I just saw it behind a rope. I didn't mind this but if you go expecting to have a good look in the room it may be best to ring ahead). There is not very much of anything in the rooms but I didn't think this detracted from the experience as I could imagine people dancing in the time of Jane Austin I have posted some pictures including one of the boxes that were used to carry people to and from the assembly rooms. I love the thought of being carried around like that. It's well worth a visit. I would recommend.
Nice places to visit. Free which is a bonus. Apart from the fashion museum, which does charge a fee. Which I didn't see. The rooms are nice and large, with most looking very similar. Meaning that there is chandelier or three, and a wooden floor, with a different layouts. And a different room shape. Once I started to walk around, my wow of each room, was less and less. Looking around the room, it looks like there could have been more places to walk around. But is sadly that is closed off to the public.
old atmosphere of Regency time dance is still there. you can imagine woman with fancy dress looking around to be danced by fancy dandy. Free entrance to visit the three main rooms: the ballroom, the tea room and the play room. A cafe is available and inside you can visit (paying a ticket) the Fashion museum.
There was a woman trying to sneak me into a room, unexplainable thing happened to me. It gave me anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder!!! Not very nice and think someone should get that checked out
