About

Discover one of East Yorkshire’s great historic treasures at Burton Constable Hall, a magnificent Elizabethan mansion set within sweeping Capability Brown parkland. Steeped in history and architectural splendour, the Hall offers a memorable day out for visitors. 

Step inside and explore over 30 beautifully preserved rooms, each telling its own story. Highlights include the Chinese Room and the extraordinary Cabinet of Curiosities, a fascinating collection of rare and unusual artefacts assembled by William Constable. Reflecting the spirit of the Enlightenment, it remains one of the most significant surviving collections of its kind in any English country house. Throughout the Hall, admire exquisite Chippendale furniture, showcasing the best of 18th-century craftsmanship, elegance and design. 

Beyond the Hall, scenic walking trails wind through tranquil lakes, ancient grasslands and open countryside rich in wildlife. A must-see outdoor highlight is the awe-inspiring whale skeleton, referenced in Moby Dick, which adds a truly unique touch to any visit. 

After exploring, relax at the Stables Kitchen and enjoy delicious homemade food and cakes. Every purchase supports the charitable mission of conserving the Hall and historic parkland, ensuring this remarkable place can be enjoyed for generations to come.
