Summer Picnic
Bring a picnic and enjoy a special day at Temple Newsam as we open our House and guided Farm tour for £5pp (1 year olds and under go free).
There will be crafts and entertainment for all the family as we make the most of the longer days. We are hoping for good weather, but if it rains we will move all the games and fun inside!
You’ll be able to buy food and drinks on the estate.
Please note that dogs are not allowed in the house, farm or on the picnic area (except assistance dogs).
Family Fun Fest will also be on the Estate, making it a perfect action-packed day!
£5 entry for everyone over 1! Includes admission to Temple Newsam House and a tour of Home Farm!
