What to See and Do
What to see and do at Newstead Abbey very much depends on your interests!
Historic House
Visitors interested in historic houses can linger over displays and reading material in the Library, or marvel at the expansive panelling in the Great Hall, all reputed to have come from a single oak tree!
Stories of the Past
Splendid Victorian room settings await those interested in Victorian history, and the medieval Cloisters and Chapter House (now the Chapel) wait to be explored by those visitors interested in Newstead Abbey's earlier history.
Poet Byron
Visitors interested in the poet Byron can see his private apartments, as well as letters, objects and furniture that belonged to the poet.
Fun for FamiliesFamilies can have fun trying on replica period costumes in the Dressing Up Room, and spotting the various animals throughout the Abbey, such as the painting of Byron's dog, Boatswain. Be sure to ask for a copy of the Wildlife Safari quiz which helps you spot the animals.
Staff are on hand to provide information and answer questions about Newstead Abbey, its history and its ghosts!
