What to expect
Enjoy a peaceful stroll along a winding 2 mile trail through 10 acres of enchanting woodland and water gardens. More than 600 large outdoor sculptures are displayed throughout our stunning grounds all year. The park is teeming with wildlife and plants which are ever-changing throughout the seasons.
In the summer you will find yourself lost in a labyrinth of lush gardens and in the bare trees of winter you will witness more of the vast exhibition all around, spotting sculptures from a far but still managing to lose yourself in the depths of the woodland.
Visitors should set aside between two to four hours for a visit as with two miles of trail and 10 acres the park is much larger than most anticipate.
Paths can be uneven with some slopes and gravel areas, so we recommend wearing appropriate footwear for a comfortable visit. For more accessibility details, visit our accessibility page using the button below:
Facilities
Toilets

Parking
There is parking immediately in front of the entrance gate for visitors of the park. If this is full, you are welcome to use the Bel and the Dragon car park around the side of the building.
Seating
You’ll find plenty of places to sit and take a break as you explore. Some seating is designed as part of the sculpture experience, so if something looks like a bench, feel free to take a seat and enjoy the surroundings.
Picnic Spots
There are 3 main areas which you can picnic, each located a short distance from reception. Each has seating or tables available and are free to use. We care about the environment and are proud of keeping a clean space, so we kindly request you take your rubbish home with you. One of the picnic spots is a Thai Hit located waterside at the front of the park, making it an excellent spot to stop for a break.
Pub
We encourage you to bring your own food and drinks to enjoy a picnic during your visit as we do not have a cafe at The Sculpture Park. However, you are welcome to visit the Bel and the Dragon opposite at any time for lunch or refreshments. You can come and go from the park throughout the day so you can easily visit the excellent places nearby where food and refreshments are available. Take a look at what's nearby.
Visiting guidelines
Dogs
Well behaved dogs are welcome on a short lead.
Setting
The park is set within natural woodland, so the terrain is not flat and all trails follow gravel woodland paths. Most visitors enjoy taking the routes at their own pace, and a step-free option is available. If you or someone in your group prefers flatter, more even surfaces, some areas may feel a little more challenging, so we recommend planning your route in advance to make the most of your visit.
