Welcome to Harewood
 Harewood House, home to the Queen's cousin, the Earl of Harewood, provides a great day out for all the family.
The House, with its outstanding art collections, splendid State Rooms and fascinating 'Below Stairs' exhibition, is set in spectacular landscaped grounds, which include formal gardens and gentle woodland walks, a Bhutanese Stupa, waterfall and Himalayan Garden.
Harewood House was built in the mid-18th century with money made from the West Indian sugar trade, you can delve into this history with our Harewood 1807 exhibit.
On a visit to Harewood you can also marvel at the Adam ceilings, Chippendale furniture and Old Master paintings in the House, explore the Gardens and Bird Garden while youngsters can enjoy the challenge and excitement of the Adventure Playground, and for the less adventurous visit the medieval alabaster table tombs in Harewood Church.
Harewood is open for February Half Term 13th - 22nd February and weekends between 28th February and 29th March 2009. Check our 2009 Spring opening times & prices here.
