Wheelchair users (accompanied by one carer or companion) may visit the gardens free of charge during opening hours. We regret that motorised wheel chairs cannot be accommodated in the house, although a non-motorised pushed wheelchair is available to be borrowed without charge. Wheelchair users should bear in mind that the Staterooms are on the ground floor, but that this is at a higher level than the entrance. A platform lift is made available to reach the necessary level, where the pushed wheelchair may be used. Disabled visitors should drive up to the front door of the house for direction to parking facilities.
A new full colour guide book is now available at the price of £4.00 and includes a list of the pictures in the collection. The picture list may be purchased separately and is priced at 50p. Guides to the gardens are available also at 50p each. Orders by post will incur additional packing and postage charges of £1.75 for each guide book and 35p for each picture list and garden guide. (Cheques/money orders in £ sterling, payable to the Corsham Estate, required before despatch.)
All prices are subject to variation without notice.
