The perfect family day out. Come and enjoy our amazing gardens, follow the woodland sculpture trail and discover a unique collection of vintage aircraft, all set in 875 acres of parkland at Old Warden Park.
What makes your perfect day out with the kids? Is it the small pleasures such as a picnic by the lake or making big discoveries like seeing some of the oldest flying machines in the world?
In our Swiss Garden, you’ll find the perfect selfie background and how about a chat with the engineers in our workshop while they restore vintage aircraft? Then relax with a locally made slice of cake and barista coffee as the children wear themselves out in our large play area - completely family friendly.
"Great collection of planes and great to see them taking off and landing so close by, brilliant play area and gorgeous gardens and parkland."
If you’ve never witnessed a 1909 Blériot XI take off or experienced yoga outdoors, don’t miss our summer events programme. Guaranteed ooohs and ommms.

A beautiful day
Stunning gardens and an interesting collection. Staff are friendly and helpful, the site is vast and it’s easy to spend a day there.
Plenty to see
Great day out on a lovely day. Took a 13, 11 and 7yr old and was surprised how well they ALL loved it. Plenty to see in the hangers, lovely gardens, large children's playground and cafe.
