Group Visits
We welcome pre-booked groups of 10 or more, with discounted admission available.
Group visits include reduced entry rates, free admission for group leaders and coach drivers, on-site coach parking, flexible arrival times and a friendly welcome from our team. Once here, your group is free to explore independently, taking the day at a pace that suits you.
Many groups choose to make a full day of their visit. We’re happy to help plan refreshments as part of your visit, whether that’s a pre-booked lunch or afternoon tea, time to enjoy the café, or use of our picnic areas. Let us know your plans when booking and we’ll help everything run smoothly.
Schools & Educational Groups
Mannington offers inspiring, hands-on learning within a 140-acre historic landscape. School visits encourage curiosity, confidence and connection with nature through engaging outdoor experiences across gardens, wetlands, meadows and woodland.
Visits are planned in partnership with teachers to support national curriculum objectives across a range of key stages. Sessions can link to science, geography, history, art and wellbeing, with a strong emphasis on conservation and care for the natural environment. We are happy to discuss access requirements and learning support in advance to ensure an inclusive experience.
Private Guided Tours
For groups wishing to explore in more depth, we offer private guided tours of the gardens, conservation work and wider estate.
Led by knowledgeable guides, tours share the stories of Mannington’s landscape, wildlife and heritage, from historic planting and restoration to the stewardship of meadows, lakes and woodland today. Tours are available for groups of 10 or more and can be tailored to your interests and pace.
