Tyntesfield

About this activity

Tyntesfield is an ornate Victorian Gothic house with plenty of gardens and parklands to explore with the whole family. It's rich in history and there's over 72,000 objects in the collections! 

The estate itself is surrounded by 540 acres of historic land and includes a woodland and orchard too. On your arrival head to the welcome building where you'll have maps of the estate to pick up and information on how to make the most of your visit too. 

There's plenty to do with the little ones too! Whether you want to play games, craft or learn, there's lots of activities. In the library you'll find a rocking horse and some family-friendly games such as rummy on display! There's also carved animals over the route too so see what you can find on your way round! 

If you want to be outside, the courtyard is home to a play area with a huge tractor to climb up and plenty of slides. The orchard play area is at the lower end of the estate where they can run around and burn off some energy, and have a go at den-building and take on the sculpture trail. 

The gardens consist of open laws, terraces and a working kitchen garden for a space to relax in. It's a great family day out, whatever the weather!
