Tatton Park

A perfect day out for the whole family. There is a large playground for kids, farm, deer park and the mansion as well as a cafe and gift shop. The kids are always ready for bed after visiting. When going into the mansion there is a store room opposite the entrance to store prams. The pigs at the farm are the best part of it.

Picturesque National Trust property with lots to see and do. An abundance of open air green spaces, dog walks and views of the deer. There's lakes , a cafe and a gift shop. Not to mention a farm and the actual house which you can visit. So there's plenty for everyone. If you like aeroplanes, they fly quite low overhead too as Manchester Airport is in the distance. A lovely place with events in abundance too!

One of the best parks for a day trip from Manchester, I’ve been here a few times and it’s always a nice day out. They just opened a new bookstore that is volunteer led with amazing books inside. The entry fee if you’re driving isn’t crazy, it’s £6.50, however the entry to the mansion could be a bit pricey. I went for the Christmas Wonderland exhibition and it was worth paying £14 entry, it was excellent and very creative. There’s also a nice tea room, but needs booking if you’re going, and there’s the barn with the canteen that has plenty of options for lunch and drinks.
The grounds are really exciting for a walk as well, and my favourite is the deer! So beautiful.

The best parks I’ve been to! Definitely recommend this place. The best time to go would be for 10 as the place is very big and you’d want to check out all the places there. The farm was a nice touch, some of the animals like the chickens and birds would be roaming around. Beautiful place to have a picnic and the Japanese gardens was amazing!

Nice walk with pram friendly path down the main road. Keep dogs on leads as there are sheep aplenty and wandering deer. A couple of routes you could take, with the crowds or away from them in the woodland. This place does get very busy and parking is chargeable at 9.50 in the high season. Places to eat and drink neat the entrance with toilets, again this gets very busy. It's worth a visit if you fancy a steady, easy walk and are lucky enough to see the deer.

Very impressive and excellent park! It’s within walking distance from the Knutsford city centre. Would recommend plan for a day to chill out here. Park in the city centre and have a nice breakfast/lunch and go for a walk around the lake. It’s free of charge for walkers and cyclist. Good day!

Definitely worth a visit even on a wet miserable day in October, the staff were extremely friendly and knowledge inside the house there is so much to see, so much wealth but possibly not as grand as some other houses but the upstairs rooms show just how comfortable life was, in complete contrast downstairs, visiting the servants areas, with kitchen, food preparation areas and many other working rooms
Once outside the house there are extensive gardens and grounds with plenty of areas for picnics etc, small shop selling quality groceries.

"We recently had the pleasure of visiting Tatton Park in Knutsford, and it truly exceeded our expectations. This expansive garden spans nearly 50 acres, surrounded by a picturesque blend of small jungles and serene waterways. The diversity of bird species here is remarkable, making it a paradise for birdwatchers.

One of the highlights was encountering a White Sambar Deer, a rare sighting indeed! The park is also home to thriving herds of sheep and deer, adding to the enchanting experience. Families with kids will love the dedicated play area, and the park's popularity as a wedding venue is well-deserved.

Tatton Park has a rich history, dating back to the 18th century. Originally, it served as a stately home for the Egerton family. The estate boasts magnificent architecture and stunning gardens, a testament to its grandeur through the ages.

For National Trust members, there's an exclusive access to the hall park, complete with a maze for kids and families. Don't miss out on a visit to the Stable Restaurant for a delightful meal, and there's even a charming bookshop to explore.

The entrance fee of £9.50 per vehicle is incredibly reasonable given the sheer beauty and diversity Tatton Park offers. It's an absolute must-visit for nature enthusiasts, history buffs, and families alike. We can't wait to return!"

Visited today in the snow with my neph/dog Bruno.

The grounds were so white it almost felt surreal. Crispy leaves with snow dropping gently from the branches above. Beautiful tall trees hugging the surrounding grounds. The water glistened so magically. Deer in their habitat with not a care in the world...just love.
Today I felt free, free from the stresses of life. Tatton park makes you realise how grateful we should be to have what we do around us in nature.
Truly beautiful ❤

A fantastic walk on a cold crisp Autumnal day made for some stunning scenery. Well signposted and good paths. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful scenery and interesting history. Dogs welcomed. Cafe was decent and gift shops full of things to see.

Lovely place, and fantastic gardens and Manor house. Parking per car is not too pricey compared to some national trust parks. There are plenty of refreshments available in the little courtyard near the gardens and a really nice shop selling jams and chutneys etc made from produce in the gardens. There is a farm there but we didn't visit that as it is more suited for children. It can get busy when there are other events on so checking ahead is an advantage.

Beautiful place to visit although quite pricey... £8 to park 1 car, £8 per adult of you want to go into the gardens. Lovely if you like the outdoors, the gardens to be fair were amazing and huge, I would pay to enter again. Deer all over the property and plenty of parking options once inside.

We went there with our granddaughter who loved the farm. She particularly enjoyed petting the farm animals. We enjoyed the gardens and the park. We bought a Totally Tatton ticket so we can go back again many times during the next year.

Phenomenal location. Me and my girlfriend came here for a picnic and photography date. £9.50 to enter, then £8 for the gardens. Perfect, affordable date day and Unforgettable anytime soon! Beautiful photos, gorgeous day, stunning and cared for gardens and a lovely walk in the sun! Highly recommended, with the obligatory ice cream! Must have!

Incredible scenery, beautiful nature, and animals who are used to people walking around. A nice serene walk, both the park and garden area, and quaint little shops with their own local produce - would definitely recommend for any wanderers and nature-/wild animal lovers.

Amazing place, well worth a visit if you're in the area. Loved the deer on the grounds.

A fascinating stately home now a national Trust property. Externally quite plain, almost ugly in my opinion but inside it's a gem of a place. Knowledgeable staff make the experience all the better. Highly recommended. Don't miss the deer park, well worth an explore.,but please don't approach the deer, they're not pets, and keep any dogs on a leash.

Superb park and mansion to visit. Beautiful gardens, impeccably maintained and a delight to walk around. The fauna is a delight to see and they also have a large glass house with tropical plants. The home grown fruit and veg are set beautiful in neat rows, on standards, against walls and trained on trellis borders. It's encouragement for all visitors to do likewise and help the planet.
The house is also a delight, well set up and sharing the history of the Aristocracy of the day. Plenty of reference to parts of Manchester and the North West with this family who owned lots of land, hence the ability to travel the world and live the high life. If there were more references to how they may have helped those in poverty around the world it would make for a more encouraging view that humanity is heading in the right direction.
Volunteers were super helpful and polite as is almost customary at NT sites.

Oh, how I love this park!
The Deers, the trees...
It was our first visit and it certainly won't be our last. Nice gift shops ❤
In love with this place.
