Which places are open and what you need to know before you visit

We’ve opened more than 100 gardens and parks in England and Northern Ireland through advanced booking. From Monday 6 July, we’re gradually opening gardens and parklands in Wales. Tickets are released on Friday for the following week. More than 200 coast and countryside car parks are open across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. All National Trust houses remain closed for now. Read this article to find out what's open and what to expect from your visit.

Weaving Shed Restaurant

You'll love our fresh and seasonal menu in the Weaving Shed Restaurant, where we keep food miles low and quality of dishes high. A lot of the herbs, fruit and vegetables are walked over from the Apprentice House garden too. Situated in the historic site of the original Weaving Shed, the newly extended and refurbished restaurant offers a range of hot meals, light lunches, snacks, cakes and bakes.

New Garden Cafe - coming soon!

We’re currently building a new Garden Café which we expect to be opening by May 2020. Our temporary café proved extremely popular, and now we’re working to make this permanent with a new and improved design. To make this happen, the café will be closed from 9 September-May 2020. *Please note that due to the building works, access via shuttle buggy to the upper garden will be limited to drop off and collection at the main garden gates, creating a slightly extended walk to reach the upper garden facilities. If you have access requirements, please call ahead for advice on access and daily changes.
