Burton Agnes
Hall and Gardens
Our grounds, woodland, walled garden and woodland adventure playground and shop are open. Takeaway coffee, wood fired pizza (most days) and other food and drink from the courtyard can be enjoyed in our grounds. Plants raised in our gardens are for sale. We are unable to accept cash, so all payments must be made on card, preferably contactless.
Burton Agnes Hall members may come at any time during opening hours, 11am to 5pm daily. Members may bring guests, who may pay the gardens admission, or join as members on the day.
In addition, we are welcoming day visitors, for whom normal gardens admissions apply (including the acceptance of RHS members on Mondays and Fridays, and Historic Houses members every day). We are working on an online booking system, for the time being please come and pay on the day. We will update our website when the online booking system is live.
We monitor visitor numbers, conservatively allowing for expected Burton Agnes Hall members, to ensure everyone can comfortably maintain social distancing. In the unlikely event that we approach capacity, we may not allow in further day visitors until others leave. We have extensive spacious grounds and have accommodated all visitors to date.
On arrival we will ask for the name and phone number of a person in each group, to support the NHS Test and Trace. This information will be destroyed after 21 days, and only used for sharing with the NHS should they request it for Test and Trace.
Your time with us will be spent outdoors. Toilets are open and frequently cleaned. Hand sanitiser is provided by the admission horse box (which we recommend using on arrival), by the food ordering area, by the pizza trailer, in the woodland adventure playground, at the walled garden entrance and two further places in the walled garden. Sinks in the toilets are available for soap and water hand washing. We ask all visitors to act in accordance with government guidance, particularly with regards to social distancing and personal hygiene. The Hall and maze remain closed, and the cafe is open for indoor seating, with no table service.
We are keeping all events under review, please check the website and social media for further information and updates.
We will continue to monitor this developing situation and share
updates as soon as they are available. Thank you for your understanding at
this time.
