Highlight • Historical Site

Now a hotel and wedding venue, Lynford Hall was built in the 1850s. It was used in the Second World War as a convalescence hospital for officers and later became a foresters' training college. The courtyard is famous for its use as the outside of the cafe in 'Allo 'Allo. For more information see the website lynfordhallhotel.co.uk/index.html
