Welcome Back

We’re delighted to update that Harewood House, Grounds, Gardens and Bird Garden are open to the general public from Monday 20 July.

The long awaited reopening of the gates gives you access to over 120 acres of Gardens, Lakeside Walks, the Harewood Bird Garden and open spaces to enjoy, in addition to visiting a brand new exhibition in the House. We have been working hard behind-the-scenes to carefully plan and re-shape your visit to Harewood.

It remains essential to book your visit online, as we are limiting the number of people who can access the site to ensure flow and social distancing. You can now book a month ahead with dates until 16 August.

Your visit might look a bit different to begin with, we have additional washing facilities in place, new signage and one-way flows are key areas such as the Bird Garden and the Himalayan Garden. Several indoor spaces remain closed, including the Bothy, the Secondhand Book Shop and the Curiosity Cabin.

Our staff teams are really looking forward to your return, and we are asking you to play your part.

To keep standards of cleanliness and awareness high, we’re asking you to play your part in keeping Harewood safe for everyone and a really uplifting experience.
