The history of the Beeston Manor is eye-opening and enchanting . With this in mind, it has been restored and converted over 12  years by John  Bickerstaffe and his father, Frank and has the most special atmosphere you could wish for.

Examples of John and Frank’s craftwork inside Beeston Manor include the wardrobes in the bedrooms, which were made from trusses, the fire place from handmade bricks, and the beautiful Woodland Conservatory light, handmade from an old wagon wheel! Other internal features of Beeston Manor have come from other demolished buildings where materials have been recycled and re-used including ones from Preston City Centre.

The story of the evolution of Beeston Manor from a redundant farm barn in 1985 to a busy vibrant venue is remarkable. If you are lucky to meet Mr Bickerstaffe Senior( Grandad), he would be delighted to tell you all the fascinating stories that created Beeston Manor!
