Find out more
Explore 60 acres of secret corners, immersive experiences, awe-inspiring aircraft and stunning gardens. Where will you go first?
Around every corner there’s something exciting to see – the Grotto, peacocks, Indian Kiosk, our proud lion…
Our six hangers are home to early 20th century aircraft, steam engines, cars and more. Watch our engineers at work restoring the latest pieces.
Set the kids off on the Woodland Walk to find all the sculptures, take a picnic under your favourite tree or spot the wildlife on the lake.
A place for everyone to relax, explore, enjoy.
A lovely day out
A beautiful day and stunning gardens and an interesting collection. Staff are friendly and helpful, the site is vast and it’s easy to spend a day there.
There is always something new to see and experience
No matter how many times you go, there is always something new to see and experience. The collection spans so many eras of flight and technology it is a real pleasure to see and experience up close.
The Swiss Gardens are so well maintained and well laid out, they are accessible and can be enjoyed in all weather.
If you visit once you'll come again
In my opinion, the very best place in Britain and probably in the world to see a display of vintage aircraft. Check out the website and check for flying days. Get there in good time and visit the hangers, house and gardens. But the stars are the aircraft many of them unique survivors. If you visit once you'll come again. I visited with my parents 55 years ago and have since brought my children and look forward to bringing my grandchildren.
