Hoghton Tower
A beautiful example of English renaissance architecture. Hoghton Tower stands proudly on its hill overlooking the surrounding countryside, an impressive sight for visitors driving up its mile long drive.
It has been the home of the de Hoghton family since the Norman Conquest. Take the long drive to the 16th century and follow in the footsteps of William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and King James I who, at a banquet held in his honour, famously knighted a loin of beef ‘Sir Loin’.
View the Banqueting Hall, Staterooms, Underground Passages, Dungeons and Dolls’ House Collection. The discovery trail around the gardens will reward you with magnificent views from the ramparts. Hoghton Tower is quite simply unique, the perfect location for an eventful day or evening out.
