An introduction to the event...
Wentworth Castle Gardens & Stainborough Park is the only Grade One Listed landscape in South Yorkshire, and contains a fascinating collection of 26 listed buildings and monuments.

The estate is now in the process of being restored, and over £16m was raised to complete phase one of the restoration (2004-08). Rare formal gardens have been rediscovered, national collections of Rhododendrons, Camellias and Magnolias enhanced; and over 100,000 bulbs planted to create a carpet of colour.

Buildings and monuments have been repaired and opened to visitors for the first time. The majestic Stainborough Castle, built by Thomas Wentworth in 1730, has been consolidated as a romantic folly and offers panoramic views across the gardens and park - if you can find the energy to climb the steps to reach the top of the tower!

Over 500 acres of historic parkland can be explored from the Parkland Trail, which links several restored follies and native woods, through the beautiful countryside of Stainborough. Both red and fallow deer can be seen on a daily basis grazing in the park.
This excellent location provides the ideal opportunity to experience all the countryside has to offer – from all the country sports with loads of have-a-go opportunities, to fine foods and animals – all this and lots more for not just the country sports enthusiast but all of the family to enjoy throughout the weekend.

Whatever your age or experience this event offers the opportunity to discover and learn about country sports and pursuits, all under the guidance of leading experts within their particular field.
