Come and get involved in our wide range of volunteer activities with something for all ages and levels of fitness. You can also keep up to date on our social media platforms for more information!
We plan to openThe Castle on the first Sunday of the month from Easter to October. It may be possible for groups to have a dedicated tour under certain circumstances, at any time of the year.
The Estate is free to enter at all times, the Castle only in Spring and Summer when volunteers are available to open it. Please continue to respect other people’s space. Be aware that the path through the Estate and the cafe area do get congested particularly in Summer/weekends and the car park can also fill up quickly at these times.
For volunteers there are a variety of conservation activities available – see our Facebook page for the latest information and events page for general information. Please consider lending your support to these events. Our two professional Rangers cannot keep this beautiful landscape safe, tidy and well managed without volunteer help! It would be also really helpful if you could take your litter home with you, to avoid the bins overflowing.
We hope you and your family enjoy a terrific day out, discovering the many and various delights of this amazing Estate.
