Things to do

Visit the stunning gardens at Ashridge House. The house itself is not open to the public except on special tour days throughout the year. There is also a cafe, restaurant and bar on site, open to the public.

Nestled within the picturesque countryside lies an 800-year-old former royal residence that has stood the test of time. Ashridge House has witnessed centuries of history and has been home to kings, queens, and royalty alike.

Nowadays, this stunning residence has been repurposed as a public event venue, attracting people from all walks of life. Ashridge House boasts of hosting a wide range of events, including a vintage fayre, creative workshops, and much more to come. It is a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern-day vibrancy.

Ashridge has meticulously maintained its grandeur, featuring grand halls and majestic staircases, ornate ceilings, and intricate woodwork. The vast 190 acres of gardens are meticulously landscaped with stunning topiary, water features, and seasonal blooms, making it a perfect setting for outdoor events.

It offers a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, making it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking to explore, where visitors can stroll through the vast gardens, admiring the stunning landscapes or enjoy a picnic in one of the many secluded areas.

Spend a couple hours or stay the whole day. With 190 acres to discover, it is perfect for a family day out with lots of space for kids to run around and explore. Dogs on leads welcome. Garden tickets can be bought on-site in the Bakehouse.

There are weddings on the weekend at Ashridge House and we ask that you please be mindful and respectful to keep distant from the wedding party when in the gardens.
