Milford House offers a truly magical experience, with guided tours that reveal the rise and decline of a 19th‑century linen dynasty and the house’s pioneering hydroelectricity and telephone system. The McCrum family’s magnificent interiors, packed with family treasures and artworks, let visitors step into the upstairs and downstairs worlds of a once‑modern home. The site also hosts costumed tours, a graceful afternoon tea in the dining room, and walking tours of the surrounding village. Families with an interest in history, architecture and the story of the penalty kick will find the venue engaging and educational.
