    Beautiful gardens and enjoyable afternoon visiting the grounds of the Park. A nice pizza at the Pizza kitchen, too! The house isn't open to the public, only the grounds.

    Fabulous day - thought this was going to be a bog standard stately home and gardens, but it is so much more! Lots of secluded walks around rivers and rolling countryside, cafe, restaurant, maze, railway, ample free parking, deer park, lakes ... loads. Were there a day and took a picnic - didn't see everything and had such a lovely relaxing day. Definitely going back!

    Absolutely beautiful park. We thoroughly enjoyed walking around taking in all the stunning garden's and views beyond. Our children loved the woodland play area and train ride. We all loved seeing the wild deer and sheep. Would recommend to everyone for and fun and peaceful day out. Great that they are dog friendly too. So clean and well maintained gardens. We can't wait to return. We returned on 4th September for an event. The firework display was the best we have ever seen. Absolutely fantastic. Literally blew us away. Thank you.

    Stayed here for a wedding a few years ago and it was brilliant. Such a beautiful house and such friendly staff. Wish I'd explored the house a little more. Enjoyed seeing the (I believe) st ledger trophy

    We went for the enchanted forest, made a perfect date night with my wife! It looked so amazing! The food and drinks were amazing too! Children had activities to do including icing Christmas trees and gingerbread men! We shall return!

    Lovely buildings, grounds and church but we found it very over priced for the experience. Free parking- great. Ticket price of £11 per adult (no concessions) didn't include the house it was just for the grounds. Walled garden was disappointing as only an orchard now and no actual kitchen garden. Been, seen and doubtful we will go back.

    Visit for Classic Ibiza concert. Stay at the camping, campsite is very basic with toilets that are grim (no lights, light clean). Shame as the location itself is stunning.

    Quick to get into the place with an entry point for tickets booked on line and separate point of entry if paying on day. Great outside play area for young children with lots of things to occupy them and for them to climb on and over. The miniature train which is by the play area is reasonably priced at £2.50 for around a15 min. ride which is through a wooded area so there's not a lot to see except for lots of great interesting trees. But beware of the train seats they were all really dirty. It's a great place if you like a good walk with big wide open spaces and a great place to take your dog. Not a lot there to see though, there's the formal gardens a church a couple of greenhouses with lots of plants in and you have to look and find these places because there isn't a map to tell you where they are or any sign post's. For the ladies there's a problem with the toilets. Very long queues. Also the separate disability toilet was also being used as a nappy changing area. Why ? Surely they can find a room for nappy changing. There is the house of course to look around which is £3 extra but it's well worth having a look inside. It's only open from 1 till 4 but most rooms have a guide and the guides are very helpful and knowledgeable about the house. They could do with signs to tell you which room to go into next, people seem to be wondering backwards and forwards not sure which way to go. Used there snack bar to purchased a ham roll for £2.50 one very thin peice of ham and the roll lacked any substance to it but the hot chocolate I purchased was great. Enjoyed the day. Would have enjoyed more if the sun had been out.

    Visited at Christmas for the "Enchanted Weston" walk, entry was quite steep at £14 per person but overall the quality of the event was excellent, a true Christmas walk with wonderful lights which created a lovely atmosphere, the only thing to improve upon this would've been snow, but they can't control the weather so I'll let them off!

    Yes. The train is still there and. It's. A twenty plus minute ride through the woods too.. Ok as for the House itself. Well it's big, lots of oil paintings of really unattractive and menacing looking people from hundreds of years ago, vases and statuettes and room after room. Most rooms had an old lady telling you not to sit on the furniture/sofas. More oil paintings some of horses, lots of nakedness, women and children and babies depicted in quite a lot of these old paintings, no comments lol Pretty boring stuffiness really unless you like that sort of stuff. I guess. The grounds and gardens, bits I saw were ok. I didn't walk and explore the whole 1000 acres or the whole estate, it seemed to go on forever. As was there for the Summer Fiesta and picnic. I have never been here before so nice to finally have a look around. I didn't go in to The Granary bar restaurant but it looked really nice for somewhere to eat and drink so plan on a return visit. As stately homes and gardens go, I was disappointed by the gardens so if that's your thing there's much better places, if you are taking kids I think it's not historic enough, didn't see any suits of armour and all the kids wanted to go upstairs which is out of bounds. For walking the dogs, a picnic and a game of Frisby, play park and train, it's a good alternative to your normal park and the facilities, toilets, shop, etc are very good. I think unless there's an event or thing on, you just pay parking.

    Family fun. My young son really loves coming here for walks. We have an annual pass that is well used throughout the year. My wife loves the old trees. My son's favourite bit is the cave. I love the orchard with its large variety of trees.

    We visited Weston on the Spring fling event on a BH Monday. The were a selection of stalls selling food and drinks, crafts and music. Lots of families were taking advantage of the beautiful weather and brought picnics, playing games etc . There are plenty of grounds to investigate and walk!! We went around the house, it was lovely, I was surprised at the number of oil paintings by famous artists, very impressive. There is a restaurant and art gallery onsite which had an animal art event. A lovely day and would visit again to explore the beautiful grounds.

    Great day out plenty of walks around the estate. The kids' play area was fantastic. My 4 kids are aged between 3 and 9 and loved it, with lots of play equipment for all ages. The train ride was brilliant about a 15-minute journey with lots to see well worth the price. Weston Park also holds lots of differing events we first visited during a triathlon, which we hardly noticed while walking around the estate. Our second visit was the spring fling event, which was awesome, live music, fair ground, craft and food stalls, and a great atmosphere. I am looking forward to many more visits with family and friends.

    Beautiful place. Well organised and well lit car parks. Trial amazing basicallly it was an enchanted forest. Theres a lovely coffee stall half way round selling a vast array of coffees,hot chocolates and alcoholic beverages plus very nice cakes at good prices. There was entertainment in a big courtyard and nice food stalls. The lit up trail was the best i'v seen in awhile.

    A, lovely day out at the food festival today. We tried the gorgeous Ferrero Brownies and a Spinach, Feta, Creme fraiche sort of pasty from Jools Gourmet. Beautiful grounds and pretty gardens, a lovely place to visit. Also a play area and miniature railway for the kids.

  • 5/5 Jonny Ross M. 10 months ago on Google
    We provided the wedding band and DJ here over the weekend and were so impressed with the venue as a whole. The decor is stunning inside and out with beautiful views of the grounds. The staff were wonderful and the food was fantastic. A fantastic venue for a wedding - we look forward to working with you again!

  • 4/5 Robert G. 11 months ago on Google
    Fantastic grounds and scenery. We went here to attend the annual Camper Jam event and really enjoyed our stay. Clearly the attractions we enjoyed are not there all year round, but the location is great and it the real attraction of the grounds we’re obvious. We enjoyed exploring them to walk the dog.

  • 5/5 Alan R. 10 months ago on Google
    Nice garden's and kid's play park, love this place and lucky to camp there in our motorhome.

  • 5/5 Simon Andrew W. 10 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Marie T. 9 months ago on Google
    What a great event at weston Park. The kids loved it. It was a great family evening watching the pyrotechnics with the real and remote control aeroplanes. The only criticism I have was there wasn't clear signs on where we had to go to enter weston park then at the end it was a nightmare trying to get out and they should of sent you out on both entries

  • 5/5 Keith L. 9 months ago on Google
    Here attending a VW show Camperjam. Never miss Camperjam as the location of Weston Park is the main reason for going. The house and grounds are superb,there is a children's play park and best of all a brilliant narrow gauge railway, with it's own station. Would definitely recommend going.

  • 5/5 Christopher Peacock (. 7 months ago on Google
    We had an excellent weekend at Camperjam VW festival. Even the shocking weather could not put a damper on it. The music and food stalls were great and all the great VW on show, classic and modern. All the spares you will need or don’t need, just wish you had.

    We stayed overnight but although the room looked stunning on arrival there were a few oversights that surprised me. The bath didn't appear to have been cleaned properly. When you ran your hand over the surface you could tell where the bath had been filled to the last time it was used. The bath was beautiful and I really wanted to use the bath salts so I thought I'd clean it myself but when I started to wipe around black, greasy (mascara-like)marks appeared so I left it. The blind in the bathroom also needs cleaning as something had been sprayed up it. The grounds and breakfast was lovely. The cellar is amazing with it's snooker table, bar and dance floor - it's a pity you can't hire this out for small parties.

    We went to the Western Park Christmas market and were not disappointed. A range of stalls, homemade gifts, alcohol, cheese to name a few. All situated on the beautiful grounds where you can have a wonder. Kids or no kids get yourself on the tiny train and enjoy going through the woodland! 🚂🌲🌲🎄🌲

  • 5/5 Kevin C. 4 months ago on Google
    Great day out, house done up for Xmas and a great craft fair.

  • 5/5 K S. 4 months ago on Google
    Visited the Christmas Market. As with last year, the organisation was excellent, with all staff being friendly and helpful. The market was really interesting. Excellent atmosphere. There were many wide ranging stalls. I was so nice to see that the stall holders were selling their own hand made products. Pay a visit, you certainly will not be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Richard S. 3 years ago on Google
    Just a beautiful place. Amazing trees in a historical landscape. Gardens are a must and a great example of Capability Browns work. He would be proud.

  • 5/5 Catherine B. 3 years ago on Google
    Fantastic place to visit

  • 4/5 Amanda F. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely place to visit. You can do quite a lot of walking if you follow the estate walks, we did a 3 mile walk around the Knoll Tower. Formal gardens and woodland walk. Miniature railway looked like good fun for children. Granary bistro was nice with friendly staff and hand sanitizer etc - quite expensive though. We booked online and the only downside was not being able to use the 2 4 1 Gardeners World card. Also no estate maps available when we asked. Very nice day anyway.

  • 5/5 Mike F. 3 years ago on Google
    So far so good. Wet start last evening. Beautiful start to the day Saturday. Happy Dubbing Campers.

  • 5/5 Emma B. 3 years ago on Google
    Wonderful location to hold Forest Bathing, especially in Temple Woods part of the grounds. Great place to connect with nature. Lots of history and fabulous ancient trees. A beautiful setting all year round, Autumn being especially nice.

  • 4/5 John P. 3 years ago on Google
    We're very lucky to have this place on our doorstep, it is a beautiful place with some fantastic grounds and gardens to explore. The price to get in is reasonable and the little train is awesome for £2.50. Only reason it hasn't scored 5 is due to the Granary, which I think has always been overrated and overpriced (reviewed separately).

  • 5/5 Sandra B. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautifully laid put, gardens a treat. Sadly hall not open due to Covid. Children's playground, dogs welcome, lots of walks.

  • 4/5 phyl w. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved the grounds of Weston Park, shame they didn't replace the ghouls in the spooky wood as they 'deflated', but otherwise very good. So many different paths to walk, will definitely return on the summer for a different perspective.

  • 4/5 Manjit S. 3 years ago on Google

    Lovely visit to Weston Park. The house was closed but the parkland, woods & gardens were all open. It was wonderfully quiet, sunny and warm and we had a picnic although the restaurant was open. Recommend Weston Park to everyone, single, couples & families

  • 5/5 Rachel H. 3 years ago on Google
    A Beautiful place. Lovely grounds to walk round. A big adventure park for the kids. Mini steam train rides. We loved exploring the grounds and building dens in the woodland.

  • 4/5 gareth w. 3 years ago on Google
    Very good day out with plenty go see and do. I do think that for the price of admission the train ride should be free.
