Planning Your Visit

All Grounds visits must be booked in advance, including for National Trust, members and the Local Resident Pass Scheme. We are currently limiting the number of visitors each day to allow for social distancing.

Following the Government’s most recent guidelines, we are re-opening the gardens for visitors to enjoy.

While we cannot wait to welcome you, the safety of our staff, volunteers and visitors remains our priority. To adhere to essential social distancing guidelines we have put in place appropriate measures across the site to ensure we operate responsibly.

We know how much everyone has been missing a walk outdoors in beautiful surroundings and how important it is for health and well-being, but we politely ask that you follow the current government advice on interacting with people outside of your household.

Your visit to Ascott will be slightly different from usual; please read the following about how we are currently operating.
