Acorn Bank is a beautiful historic house, garden and estate in the Eden Valley. As well as the house you can discover the partially restored watermill, enjoy wildlife in the woods on the way, and find out more about the history of gypsum mining on the estate. There is the walled garden, and cafe plus lovely views across the Eden Valley to the Lake District.
