The enthusiastic hosts gave a guided tour of the old rooms of the house, followed by a guided garden tour and then refreshments with the option to try some Tudor-style snacks and soft drinks, followed by a talk on various medieval subjects.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3202\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3202\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0320.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3202\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3202\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0320-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"garden view\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3202\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">garden view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3201\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3201\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0319.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3201\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3201\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0319-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Elizabethan garden \" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3201\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elizabethan garden<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3207\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3207\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0325.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3207\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3207\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0325-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Period flower beds\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3207\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Period flower beds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3206\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3206\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0324.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3206\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3206\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0324-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Period herbal plots\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3206\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Period herbal plots<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3205\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3205\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0323.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3205\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3205\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0323-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Vegetable beds\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3205\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vegetable beds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3204\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3204\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0322.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3204\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3204\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0322-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Chinese summerhouse\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3204\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chinese summerhouse<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3203\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3203\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0321.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3203\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3203\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysoutblog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Parsonage_0321-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Garden feature with knights\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3203\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Garden feature with knights<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Private.
