Entry (car park) located off Holbeache Lane off the A449/A491 north.

Holbeche House is now a nursing home under the control of OLM [BetterCaring] and is therefore not open to the general public. They do not object to people wandering the grounds and taking pictures, however they do not allow individuals inside anymore. They are fully aware of the history of the house and welcome enthusiasts to look around the grounds.

Little of the original house from 1605 remains unfortunately although to the left of the house by the stream, there are still remnants of the wall that surrounded the building. The old mill was removed in 1999/2000 to make way for new construction.
