Venue Description

A living working estate, guided by the seasons with an impressive mansion, parkland, gardens and rare breed farm.

Accessibility

An accessible route from the car park to the Walled Gardens, Farm and Stables is available along with an accessibility map. They can be collected from the Visitor Centre or downloaded from the ‘Planning your visit’ section of our website. There is level access to most of the estate (except the mansion and parkland) but please be aware that terrain types do vary. Wimpole has powered mobility scooters, wheelchairs and Mountain Trikes which are available to borrow from the Visitor Centre. To book please call: 01223 206000. The mansion is currently only accessible via a flight of 12 stone steps. A stair climber is now available between the hours of 12pm & 2pm provided it is pre-booked before your visit. To book please call: 01223 206000. Please note, the stair climber can only be used by people with the ability to transfer between chairs and will only provide access to the ground floor. An 8-seater golf-buggy or wheelchair ramp buggy, driven by volunteers is available daily between 10am - 4pm upon request to transfer visitors between the Visitor Centre, the Stables, the Hall and the gardens and farm. We continue to make improvements to accessibility at Wimpole, if you would like to offer feedback, please do drop us an email.
