Haddon Hall

Haddon Hall is a medieval manor house located in Bakewell, Derbyshire, England, and is considered one of the finest examples of a medieval and Tudor manor house in the country. The hall dates back to the 12th century and has been owned by the Manners family for around 500 years. The hall is a Grade I listed building and has been used as a filming location for several popular films and TV shows, including Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice.

Visitors to Haddon Hall can explore the beautifully preserved interior, which includes a great hall, chapel, and long gallery, all furnished with original Tudor and Elizabethan furniture. The gardens are also worth exploring, with terraced gardens, a knot garden, and a medieval herb garden. In addition to its historical and architectural significance, Haddon Hall is also known for its connection to the legend of the 'Maud's Leap,' a story about a young woman who leapt across the River Wye to escape an unwanted marriage.
