At Combermere

 ABBEY TOURS for Holiday Cottage Guests.

At the moment, there is extensive restoration taking place in the Library of the Abbey, and all tours are suspended until the repairs are complete.  Due to the complex nature of the works, it is not possible to give a date for their resumption, but you can follow the restoration on a  dedicated page which will be going up shortly.
