Eyam Hall has been the home of the Wright family for over 300 years. We opened it to the public in 1992, but it retains the intimate atmosphere of a much loved private home. Few houses offer such character and charm as Eyam Hall. Under the watchful gaze of the Wright ancestors' portraits you will visit the beautiful stone flagged hall, a unique tapestry room, the bedroom with a magnificent tester bed. Other rooms reveal costumes belonging to family members, precious artefacts and fascinating family mementos. Observant visitors may even come across the ghostly apparition of Sarah Mills, a young servant girl, who drowned herself in the well and still answers the night bell! The walled garden, now open to the public, is nearing the end of a restoration project and visitors can delight in the knot garden, the avenue of espaliered apple trees and the rose walk. CONFERENCES In the heart of the Peak District Eyam Hall is ideally situated for a small day conference or group meeting. Delegates cannot fail to be inspired by the beautiful surroundings in the Hall itself and the gardens. The meeting rooms at Eyam Hall are the hall which is suited to theatre style seating for up to 30 delegates and the dining room and drawing room for smaller group meetings. All three rooms are on the ground floor and are easily accessible. Lunch is served in the Gallery room, an attractive 17th century converted barn.
