Tatton Park

Tatton Park is one of the UK’s most complete historic estates. It is home to a Tudor Old Hall, Neo-Classical Mansion, 50 acres of landscaped gardens, a rare-breed farm and 1,000 acres of deer park. Our speciality shops, restaurant, tea room, adventure playground, events and educational programmes combine to make Tatton one of the most popular family days out in the North West.

The Old Hall was the estate manor house until the late 17th century, when work commenced on a new house, today known as The Neo Classical Mansion. It is celebrated for its Gillows furniture and collection of ceramics, paintings, music, books and the library collection is considered one of the finest in the National Trust.

Herds of Red and Fallow deer roam freely in 1,000 acres of parkland. The meres, woodlands and rough grassland provide a perfect habitat for wildlife. The parkland is a stunning setting for a leisurely stroll or high-octane cycle. You can also take a stroll through 50 acres of beautiful gardens reflecting over 250 years of garden design. The gardens are renowned for their remarkable glasshouses, the Japanese Garden, considered the finest in Europe and the extensive Kitchen Gardens, still producing fruit and vegetables today.

The working rare-breed farm is a must-see for our family visitors. Meet our rare breed cattle, horses, sheep, pigs, goats, poultry and donkeys and take part in themed events throughout the year. Children can enjoy the farm's new woodland play trail and den building area.

Tatton hosts over 100 events a year including the prestigious RHS Flower Show, concerts, car shows, wedding shows, antiques fairs and much more.

For nearly 400 years the estate was the property of the Egerton family until it was bequeathed to the National Trust in 1958. Today it is financed and maintained by Cheshire East Council.
