Park & Gardens
The gardens were originally designed by John and Joséphine Bowes, and the formal parterre garden, complements this unique building. Today you can explore acres of parkland, enjoy a private picnic or go for a peaceful stroll around the grounds where there are specimen trees from all over the world.
Many events take place in the grounds throughout the year including Theatre performances, the Teesdale Brass Band Contest and the Teesdale Food and Craft Festival.
The fountains have recently been restored thanks to Northumbrian Water through its employee volunteer scheme.
