Dating from 1688, Wallington was home to many generations of the Blackett and Trevelyan families, who all left their mark. The result is an impressive, yet friendly, house with a magnificent interior and fine collections. The remarkable Pre-Raphaelite central hall was decorated to look like an Italian courtyard and features a series of paintings of Northumbrian history by William Bell Scott. The formality of the house is offset by the tranquil beauty of the surrounding landscape ¿ with lawns, lakes, parkland and woodland. The beautiful walled garden, with its varied plant collection and charming conservatory, is an enchanting must-see
- Relax, picnic or play in the grassy courtyard.
- Marvel at Lady Wilson's Cabinet of Curiosities.
- Look out for red squirrels at the wildlife hide.
Year-round programme of events for all ages, including open-air theatre, food and craft festival, guided walks, music, dancing and hands-on activities. Adventure playground and children's trail. Dogs: Dogs on leads in grounds and walled garden only
