Hazelbury Manor, a 14th-century property, has a rich history dating back to the Croke family, with notable owners including Sir John Yonge and Hugh Speke. The estate has undergone several phases of development, with the Speke family making significant contributions in the 17th century. The property was visited by Queen Elizabeth I in 1575, and its architecture reflects its Tudor heritage. In the 20th century, the estate was restored and extended by George J Kidston, and it was featured in Country Life magazine. The property has served as a girls' school and has undergone various renovations, including the addition of an indoor swimming pool. The estate comprises a Grade I listed manor house, surrounded by beautiful gardens and 181 acres of pasture and woodland.
