Clumber Park

Why go

The serpentine lake gives the estate a clear landscape focus, while the chapel, kitchen garden and Pleasure Grounds offer distinct places to explore. This was the seat of the Dukes of Newcastle: its broad parkland and long lime-tree avenue make the scale of that former estate visible as you explore.

What to look for

• A serpentine lake runs through the former ducal parkland.
• The Gothic-style Chapel of St Mary the Virgin stands within the estate.
• The walled kitchen garden contrasts with the open Pleasure Grounds.

Useful to know

• Choose which estate areas matter most before setting out; the park covers around 3,800 acres.
• Check the precise bus branch and last return; the approach from Carburton includes a substantial walk.
• Check dated opening information for the garden and facilities separately from the wider parkland.
