Learning in the park
Learning in the park | Pre-school and primary | Secondary and beyond
The 1000 acre park and Stand Wood are both freely accessible throughout the day to be used as an educational resource or just to picnic and play games.
You can enhance your learning experience by booking a tour around the Estate on our custom-built access trailer. A member of Estate staff will explain what you see, and your tour can address one of a choice of themes.
The trailer is fully accessible for wheelchair users, although we require a minimum of 24 hours notice in order to remove seats.
