Tatton Park and Gardens, Knutsford (one of Cheshire's Gardens of Distinction)

Tatton Park, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6QN

Tel: 01625 534400

There's enough here at this National Trust property to keep you occupied for several days, never mind several hours. It's a country estate with a thousand acres of deer-park, plus meres, an authentic Japanese garden, a medieval hall (the Old Hall), a Georgian mansion (Tatton Hall) and a 1930s farm, not forgetting the tea rooms. The park (free for cyclists) is open daily but the buildings and gardens are closed on Mondays, except Bank Holiday Mondays. Be warned that the RHS Flower Show held annually in July dramatically increases the traffic around the area and in the parkland. See the map below
