Rare survival of a complete estate, with all major buildings including mansion house, servants' quarters, working farm and walled garden
Summer may have come to an end, but the chance for spontaneous days out have not. Come to Shugborough estate to explore harvest time, enjoy seasonal food and tick off your 50 things list.
Join us on a journey into uncharted territory as the Shugborough Estate returns to the care of the National Trust this year. This is just the start of the journey for Shugborough as the programme of conservation and improvements to the whole estate is a long term project that will continue to be carried out over the next ten years.
Home to the Anson family since 1624, a legacy of exploration and innovation, it was once described as ‘a perfect paradise’.
You can explore sweeping parkland, ancient woodland and a landscape peppered with monuments, then discover Park Farm, created at the cutting-edge of agricultural reforms.
In the Georgian mansion, unearth unusual treasures and experience life 'below stairs', then enter a world of glamour and royalty in the apartments of Patrick Lichfield, 5th Earl and fashion photographer. Entrance to the Lichfield Apartments will be by a limited number of timed tickets, available at visitor reception.

Most of our places run the Gift Aid on Entry scheme at their admission points.
Under this scheme, if you're not a member you have the choice of two entry tickets:
If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you a clear choice between the Gift Aid Admission prices and the Standard Admission prices at the admission point. It's entirely up to you which ticket you choose.
Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid - an extra 25 per cent - potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below:
| Gift Aid | Standard | |
|---|---|---|
| Amount paid by visitor | £11.00 | £10.00 |
| Tax refund from Government* | £2.75 | £0.00 |
| Total received by the National Trust | £13.75 | £10.00 |

Admission charges apply to non-members and are paid at Visitor Reception. When you buy your admission ticket to Shugborough you're directly helping to keep the estate a special place for ever, for everyone.
Parking is free of charge.
Last entry into the Mansion is half an hour before closing. Check at reception for last order for hot food in the cafes. Entrance to the Lichfield Apartments will be through timed tickets only. Tickets are limited, subject to availability and will be sold from 9am. Some areas of the estate might be closed due to conservation.
