Garden Light Trail Closure | Saturday 21st December

Due to the yellow weather warning and high wind forecast, we have made the difficult decision to close the Garden Light Trail on Saturday 21st December to ensure the safety of our team and visitors. The House and food outlets will remain open as usual until 4.00pm.

Here at Wentworth Woodhouse, we are working hard to make our visitor experience accessible for all as we develop and regenerate the site.

Use the Accessibility Toolbar below to view the website in a format that most suits your needs.

Tuesday to Sunday, 10.00am-4.00pm

Wander through the State Rooms at your leisure, imagining yourself perhaps at a grand ball or luxurious dinner. Room Stewards will be on-hand to help with queries and a children’s ‘History Pastport’ activity sheet is available for younger visitors.

Adult: £14.50 | Child: Free | Accompanying Carer: Free

Make the Most of Your Visit!

Want to get the most out of the House? Take a Guided Tour with one of our expert guides and learn more about our chequered past and interesting former residents. If you would prefer to just visit The Gardens, tickets can be purchased here.

Why not make a day of it by including Afternoon Tea in the Long Gallery or lunch at The Camellia House as an extra special treat for you and your loved ones? Please note, pre-booking is required.

Additional Information

  • Although we have 365 rooms in total, only our State Rooms are available to explore as much of the House is still unsafe for visitors. We also don’t have a collection and have chosen to let the beauty of the rooms speak for themselves rather than filling the spaces with unoriginal items.
  • You may notice that some of our State Rooms appear quite dark as their shutters are closed. This is because UV rays from sunlight are one of the main causes of damage here at Wentworth Woodhouse. As a Preservation Trust, it is our duty to protect and preserve the House for future generations so we have taken the decision to close some shutters in order to best conserve the rooms.
  • Though entry to the House is on a time slot basis, with your ticket you will get all-day access to the Gardens, open from 10.00am. If you book a late afternoon session for your House admission, we encourage you to visit the Gardens first (ahead of your booked time slot) to ensure you get the most from your visit.
  • For safety and security reasons, large bags and backpacks are not permitted in the State Rooms. Upon arrival, you may be requested to leave any large bags in our racking area by a member of our Front of House team. Please note, possessions are left at your own risk and Wentworth Woodhouse is not liable for any theft or damage.

Accessibility

  • Please note, due to the age and nature of the House, there is no disabled access to the upper floors which includes the principal State Rooms.
  • The Gardens here at Wentworth Woodhouse are fully accessible, as well as the ground floor of the House which includes the location of the Butler’s Pantry Café and Gift Shop.

Help Support Wentworth Woodhouse Preservation Trust

Remember, any money made from general admission goes straight into the Wentworth Woodhouse Preservation Trust and contributes towards the restoration of this magnificent House & Gardens.
