Guided tour of Rokeby Hall

Join the guided tour to see the art treasures inside Rokeby Hall before a gentle stroll down to the river to enjoy a bring-your-own picnic (weather permitting), while admiring the beautiful parkland scenery.

JBS Morritt (1771-1843), who owned the house for more than 50 years acquired Velaquez’s Toilet of Venus which subsequently became famous as the Rokeby Venus (pictured above). In 1906 it was sold to the National Gallery. A copy by William A Menzies, in the original frame, hangs in the house.
