Wentworth Castle Gardens & Stainborough Park extends to over 500 acres and includes historic gardens, a children's adventure playground and a fascinating collection of 26 listed buildings and monuments.

The former seat of the Earls of Strafford, the estate has been the subject of a major restoration project. Rare formal gardens have been rediscovered, National Collections of Rhododendrons, Camellias and Magnolias enhanced, and over 100,000 bulbs planted to create a carpet of colour.

With atmospheric views, woodland walks and majestic follies, there is something for everyone to enjoy in the Gardens throughout the year. Watch the deer in the historic Parkland or take the Trail and explore the woodland to discover the intriguing monuments for yourself.

There are special events and attractions all year round for children and adults, from open-air theatre and musical events to cookie-making and Easter egg hunts... and remember to stop at our Long Barn Visitor Centre to check out the gift shop and Terrace Tearoom. Online booking is now available or most of our activities and events.
