Discover one of Britain’s most beautiful country estates

Step inside Bowood House and explore elegant rooms filled with fascinating objects, artwork and stories from the past. This is also where Joseph Priestley discovered oxygen, giving the house a real place in scientific history.

Outside is where Bowood really opens up. Wander through sweeping parkland, peaceful woodland paths and beautifully kept gardens, including the famous rhododendron walk and terraced lawns.

For families, this is an easy win. The adventure playground is one of the best in the UK with huge climbing frames, slides and plenty of space for kids to run around and let off steam.

Whether you want history, fresh air or just a relaxed day out together, Bowood delivers it all in one place
