If you’re showing any of the symptoms of coronavirus, or if you've been in contact with anyone that has the virus in the last 14 days, please don’t visit.
Access
Wheelchairs will be available to borrow as usual. For wheelchair access to the house, please enter the house via the courtyard door and press the intercom button. A member of staff will be with you shortly.
There will be no buggy service in operation as we cannot guarantee safe social distancing measures for our volunteer drivers.

The main car park is a 15-minute walk downhill to the house. The reception building will remain closed; please show your pre-booked tickets at the gatehouse.

Please bring one with you.
Exploring the garden & countryside
The garden & countryside are looking lovely, but won’t be quite as you’re used to seeing them. We had almost no gardeners or rangers in the property for many weeks, while everyone stayed home and stayed safe.
Gardeners will be working in the garden, please respect the social distancing guidelines around them and be aware that at times some areas may be closed for maintenance and to give the team space to work.
There will be no talks, tours, or opportunities for questions or advice at this time.
Help support key workers
To say thank you to our nation's key workers and all they have done for us, we're encouraging visitors to keep the first and last slots of each day free for key workers to use. While we are unable to 'reserve' these slots exclusively for key workers, we hope you will join us in thanking them by leaving these times free. If you or someone in your group are a key worker, please take the opportunity to book these early and late timeslots.
