Sewerby Hall and Gardens

The award winning attraction of Sewerby Hall and Gardens is the place to visit. Uniquely situated in a dramatic clifftop position with spectacular views over Bridlington and set in 50 acres of early 19th Century parkland, Sewerby Hall and Gardens offers something for everyone from the magnificent award winning gardens to the deep rooted heritage of the house.

Take a trip back to the 1900s to see how Sewerby Hall would have looked. The house has been transformed using furniture from the Victoria and Albert Museum and other nationally important collections. The exciting exhibition programme includes a display about the lavish country house parties of the Edwardian period and features some of the costumes from an award winning period drama. Don’t miss the new short film about the life of Amy Johnson in her popular exhibition.

The Zoo is the place to keep the children amused. Housing a fascinating collection of animals and birds, highlights are our four Ring-Tailed Lemurs (fed at 2pm daily) and the must-see Humboldt Penguins (fed at 3pm daily). Why not pre-book your very own animal encounter with the penguins?

Sewerby Hall and Gardens has a varied events programme from craft fairs to car rallies, Wacky Walks to Magic Days which all adds up to make a great day out. Our children’s adventure playground has an exciting nautical theme which will appeal to children of all ages. If the children are feeling more energetic then why not purchase an orienteering pack with everything you need to map your way around the estate or an Adventurer’s Guide full of activities, puzzles, quizzes and much more. For sport-lovers there is a nine-hole pitch and putt golf course, 18-hole putting green, a FootGolf course as well as Crown Green Bowling.
