This place feels like such a gem. It’s so unexpected to see such a historic building right in the middle of modern housing. It probably takes about an hour to visit and look around everything but you could spend longer trying hats and helmets on and taking pictures at the dining table. Very helpful and friendly staff too
Absolutely stunning place. Gorgeous cafe with lovely cakes. 🤗😁🤗
We really enjoyed our visit here.
The hall had a lot of history & ghost stories.
The staff were great, and knew every question I asked about the hall.
There is a lovely cafe with cakes & well made drinks.
It is free but donations would be welcome.

As a free to visit historical house it was a good find and broke up our last day in Manchester. It isn’t a particularly big venue and you won’t be blown away but it’s historical attributes but it’s a nice visit and has great historical architecture.
It won’t take too long to go around the space. We were there for 20 minutes

A diamond in the rough, what an amazing hidden gem.
What a well kept building with a lovely cafe and many helpful friendly staff to guide you around or add extra information to your visit.

A great cheap day out. (Free if you walk there!)
Having lived next to Ordsall for a number of years, I felt the need to check it out. Between modern residential streets, Ordsall Hall sits with beautiful architecture and well kept gardens.
The staff are really friendly and there are a number of interactive elements for kids. We walked around the whole building in around half an hour. But we could have taken it even slower. With a rich history and some great stuff on display, I highly recommend you check it out.

Fantastic day out. The hall is free and the parking is 5.50 for up to 6 hours.
I took my 7 year old to see an outdoor theatre production of Hercules, it was amazing, we are definitely going to go and see an outdoor production there again. Great value for money. Having never been there before, I was really suprised at what we found. The staff who work there are friendly and very informative. The hall itself was great to look around with lots of trying on armour and traditional tudor dress. Outside the grounds are very well kept and we met a gardener who was really helpful with advice on growing sweetcorn and other veg. The cafe and gift shop are reasonably priced. They take card :) The toilets are plentiful and very clean. A great place to go and have a picnic weather (depending) there is also outdoor seating on a terrace,we took our own folding chairs. Fantastic gem of a place . A great day out!(
