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. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

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

“I have just been on the amazing Lady Mabel College Tour led by Sue and Cheryl. They were lovely and very informative guides and I felt I’d really entered into the life, history and values of the College. We went into lots of rooms not normally open on other tours and saw lots of memorabilia collected from previous students. I would recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in social history and the lives of people from the 1950s to late 1970s.” | Sally, Lady Mabel Tour Attendee

Accessibility

Due to the age and nature of the House, there is no disabled access to the upper floors which includes the route for this Guided Tour.
