Weather experts
Here are our top tips for embracing the outdoors whatever the weather at Stowe.
-
When the sun is shining, you'll find the wooded areas and temples a good place to rest and find some shade
-
The gardens are large. For fun days out with smiling kids at the end, bring sunhats, sun cream and bottles of water to stay hydrated. Plan a route to decide how far you'll go and choose rest stops along the way
-
To dodge rain showers, use the temples as shelters
-
Temples with shelter, some benches or to use for picnic spots are: The Lake Pavilions, Concord and Victory, Ancient Virtue, The Grotto, The Cascade (there are small nooks to sit in), Queens Temple, The Fane of Pastoral Poetry
-
You'll find seasonal items for sale in our shop if you've left something behind at home
-
Ice creams are on sale in the shop as well as the cafe, if you need a quick family 'pick me up'
