Eastbury Manor House is an Elizabethan gentry house in Barking, built between 1560 and 1573, with its Tudor exterior still intact. Inside you can see the Painted Chamber's rare early 17th-century wall paintings, climb the original spiral oak staircase in the turret, and admire exposed attic timbers. Outside there's a walled garden, kitchen and herb garden, plus large front lawns to explore, and children can pick up free discovery trail sheets. It suits families and history lovers, though accessibility is limited on upper floors, with only ground floor and lift access to most areas. Barking station is a mile away, and with 66 bookable places to stay within five miles, it's an easy addition to a London stay.
