Wentworth Woodhouse Concerts 2024

Beautiful place to visit. When we visited, the house was decorated with beautiful Christmas trees and decorations. We paid to look around the house, which was a magical experience, each room came under the theme of Beauty and the Beast (A Tale as old as Time). The staff were great - friendly and helpful and told us so much about the history of the house. We ventured into the grounds and this was decorated with Christmas lights. Beautiful grounds and we look forward to returning when the rain disappears. We ate in the cafe and the food is exceptional. Absolutely delicious and definitely recommend eating here.

Having thought the house and grounds were fully with the National Trust, they are not. So please be aware that while they are on the NTs website, you will have to pay to get in (with a 25% discount for NA members). Parking is awful. Full of potholes and mud. And while the house and outside grounds looks amazing, it’s once you get inside and wander around the empty rooms that it comes apparent the place is massively dilapidated. Ceiling fixtures being held up with wooden panels, all of the house contents from years back have been sold off and all the rooms are empty. It’s a real shame to wander round such a massive estate and think that the burglars have been in during the night and stolen everything! But the reason the place is empty and looks run down is that they don’t have enough funds to repair the place and are currently replacing the roof on the old stables further up the estate. So unfortunately the house is having to wait on its repairs. The garden walks while are nice in the sun, are overgrown and unattended too. Pathways are overgrown and covered in mud, it feels like it’s been abandoned. Would I go again, probably not no. Recommend it to others, sorry another no.

It's not on my list of top places to visit, but the visit was pleasant enough. It feels overpriced for what you get to see, particularly in comparison to other historical buildings nearby. I understand it's a separate preservation trust, but I've been to others and been a lot happier. Staff here are great, and the house is interesting to look round. Gardens are well maintained and there's lots of renovations going on. Parkland is great for walking dogs. The house has an interesting history and will be much better value once the renovations are complete and there's more to see and do.

Always love a historic house. Helpful volunteers and interesting architecture and paintings. Nice tea room. Gardens are not yet that great but it'll be interesting to see how they come out after the renovations

I went to see the Christmas lights and wasn't disappointed! They've spent a huge amount of time and effort setting them up, and there's so many. The effects are truly magical. What stops this getting 5 stars was the house itself. I paid extra to see the this. Whilst I loved what I saw (and as per the outside lights, a huge amount of time had been spent on the Christmas touches), I was disappointed at how much of the house was included. I would have loved to have seen more. Overall though I'd highly recommend visiting, and set up Christmas well. Kids and adults will all really enjoy it I'll probably return in the summer to see the rest of the grounds and house, as a vast and impressive historical house.
