DISCOVER THE TIMELESS DELIGHTS OF THIS LINCOLNSHIRE ESTATE



What's to see and do in the park.

The Oaks Woodland Walk footpath is now complete. An all-weather path winds gently through woodland offering dramatic views and the special atmosphere of an oak wood. Collect a leaflet on arrival and head off into the trees……
…..at the end of the path you will see the Woodland Adventure Playground. Younger visitors will enjoy the slides and swings, while the adults can rest and decide where to go next. There’s a picnic area amongst the oak trees that overlook the lake. You will probably want to stop off and visit the…..

Red Deer Herd.
There are three species of wild deer in the park, but they are nervous and secretive creatures that are usually only glimpsed in the distance. Should you visit the deer compound, you will be able to get very close to the tame stags. You may even be asked to help with the feeding – they love cream crackers! There’s plenty of expert advice on hand if you want to discover more about these fascinating creatures.

Comprising over 3,000 acres of rolling Lincolnshire countryside, the park is best explored with our Park Ranger. Accompany him in his vehicle on a one-hour discovery trail as he journeys deep into hidden glades. Spaces are strictly limited and must be reserved on arrival. If your visit to Grimsthorpe is mainly for this tour please check the availability prior to setting out.

For those with plenty of spare energy, Grimsthorpe’s Family Cycle Trail offers the chance to explore the park. You will need to bring your own bikes and we will provide a map to assist you on the way-marked routes. Choose between a 4, 6 or 8 mile trail. All are designed with the family in mind, with a mixture of tarmac, dirt track and grass surfaces.

If you want to try your hand at fishing on the lake, day permits are available from the office. Just phone and book a place, set up at the waters edge and relax…..

With so much to see and do you will, at some point, welcome some refreshments. The Coach House Yard is the place to visit for light refreshments and ice creams. There’s also a gift shop.

During the year a number of special events take place in the grounds. Please refer to the ‘What’s on’ page for details.
