What to expect

Cannon Hall Country Park features a carefully landscaped historic setting, with sweeping lawns, mature trees, woodland, lakes and ornamental features. The grounds were developed as a designed landscape in the 18th century, and their historic character remains an important part of the visitor experience.

The park is well suited to relaxed walks, family outings and picnics. Visitors can explore the lakeside areas, enjoy the changing scenery and make use of the adventure play area, which includes climbing equipment and accessible play features. Some paths and sections of the wider park have uneven or less accessible surfaces, so it is worth checking the site’s accessibility information if you have specific mobility requirements.

Nature is another important part of the experience. The park’s mix of woodland, grassland, water and mature planting supports a variety of plants, birds, insects and aquatic wildlife. The nearby walled garden and Cannon Hall Museum add a further dimension to a visit, combining the estate’s outdoor landscape with its history, art and collections.
