Heritage Open Days at Nostell

Visit Nostell free of charge as part of the Heritage Open Day festival.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

Delve into the history of Nostell and the people that called it home. Visit the house, gardens, take a woodland walk and enjoy the parkland.

Support our conservation work by enjoying lunch in the café or at the pizza trailer, browsing the shop, or picking up a pre-loved book from one of our bookshops.

Meet a famous Tudor family at Nostell, and watch as we uncover the secrets hidden in the Thomas More family portrait.

There's no need to book and the event is included in the price of your parking ticket. National Trust members park free. Non-members: £5.00 per car.
