The Panacea Museum is in ‘Castleside’, a beautiful Victorian house that was part of the community’s headquarters and incorporates several other buildings, set within the gardens. To explore the whole site takes about two hours.

This house was the family home of Mabel Barltrop and she continued to live there after she became the leader of the Panacea Society. After her death her followers kept the house as a shrine – it remained unchanged and untouched for more than 70 years. Today visitors can explore the perfectly preserved rooms and relax in the Garden Teashop located in the buildings kitchen.
