We have two timber framed buildings on site. The medieval hall Minworth Greaves is on one floor with a small entrance step. Selly Manor is on three storeys, but is only accessible by stairs, one entrance has one step, and one entrance has four steps. We have two toilets, which are suitable for wheelchair users. We also have a small sounvenir shop.

We can provide guided tours & talks (need to pre-book), portable notes, torches, magnifying glasses and we have a photo album tour of Selly Manor. All dogs are welcome in the garden, and guide dogs may enter the houses. We are happy to help in any way we can - please just ask.
