Follow in Miss Mapp's footsteps

Discover the houses and haunts of Mapp and Lucia and of EF Benson, their creator. A guided tour with the secretary of the Benson Society takes in many places of interest, including the houses used in the recent BBC series

This was where Benson lived and, as Mallards in the novels, was Miss Mapp's home. The walks cost £6.95 a person and the 2015 dates are:
