Toilets
Toilets are located near the visitor centre on arrival and in the rear castle courtyard.
Bringing a dog?
Dogs are welcome in all outdoor areas with the exception of the Children's Play Areas. We do ask that you keep your four-legged friend on a lead at all times, including woodland areas and also the car park. Dogs welcome in the Stablau cafe seating area.
Assistance dogs only in the Castle.
Accessibility
There are lots of hard standing paths through the garden but we are on a hilly site so there are some steep inclines. Please look out for the accessible route sign to avoid steps in the Walled Garden. We have seating throughout the garden for you to rest along the way. Please check with staff on arrival if you have any concerns.
Cafe and shop are accessible.
We offer a golf buggy service - availability is dependent on volunteer drivers.
