Wentworth Woodhouse

Our Gardens will re-open soon, but for now they are closed temporarily

We are sorry to announce the temporary closure of our gardens, which have become very muddy after recent snow and rain.

Paths are slippery underfoot and the safety of visitors is our priority.

We have closed for just a few weeks so remedial work can be carried out.

Wentworth Woodhouse is determined to keep the gardens open as often as possible to give local people a peaceful place to exercise during the pandemic.

We will reopen on February 6th with a ‘fanfare’ from Mother Nature - our snowdrop drifts will be in full-bloom, carpeting the gardens in white.

Historically, snowdrops symbolise hope for better times ahead as winter nears its end; we hope they provide the perfect antidote for visitors.

Wentworth Woodhouse gardens will be open every day from 10am to 4pm right up to February 28, and then every weekend onwards (government guidelines permitting).

Please book your gardens admission online (£5 for adults and £2.50 for children, U5s free)
