Are Dogs allowed?

Dogs are welcome in the gardens (apart from within the Walled Gardens) and must be kept on short leads. Only one dog is admitted per visitor, and owners must bring dog waste bags and use the bin by the archway in the stable block. Water is available in the Old Dairy courtyard.  Entry will be refused to dogs that appear aggressive or not under control. Guide dogs are welcome in all areas.

A small area of the garden is included within the house for exclusive rental and will be roped off when the house is occupied. This consists of the front terrace gardens and part of the rear terrace gardens.
