We visited via our National trust membership, so not sure of the price of entry as we visited in December it was very wet on the paths, so it may be worth visiting in better weather conditions, when the gardens would also look at their best lots of history about the house and it is well furnished with most of the original pictures and furniture with NT volunteers giving lots of information. there is a history of WW2 map making which was held there during the war which was interesting to see. upstairs there is a dressing room for adults and children to dress up in Victorian clothes, so not accessible to all the cafe seating is outside so not good when wet! the car park is a steep walk down to the house too well worth a visit

We went on a very wet cold day but thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Our guide was very well informed and made all the difference to our tour of the house. He gave a thorough insight into the person Disraeli, his personal history and the history of the house over time. The tour was unhurried and everyone was enthralled. A good cafe is provided too.
