We just popped in to have a walk and were pleased to find the parking was free. We didn't have time to view the house and closed gardens, but we'll certainly go back to do that. We also wanted to do the high wire climbing course, but at the moment they only have a child's course - the adult one... More

I loved the big open spaces however there should be a rule about dogs being on a lead at all times, after all, dogs that are running loose cannot tell you where they have pooed in order for it to be picked up! Not pleasant if you sit on the grass! there is no visible prescence of staff to enforce... More

Nice hotel and conference hall in the middle of a big park. Nice friendly staff. Excellent lunch. Plenty of parking available.

We live 10 - 15 mins away and love it . We don`t go in the Manor House or anything we stick o the Parks / Bike rides and walks with the dog . Firstly all the historic buildings in the main grounds are lovely and all the nature is lovely also.The Manor House costs rather alot to go in... More

This is a wonderful park on the outskirts of Swindon; which is all the better for the investment that the local council have put in recently Great place to go for a walk, the walled garden looks great. My suggestion is that there is a gift shop to buy stuff there as there is a potential & it's been missed

A lovely place with staff that coul not help enough. What you can see of the house is limited but well worth seeing. The painting collection is impressive and the information provided is both interesting and enlightening. The church, next to the house, is kept locked and understandably so. the key can bw obtained from the house, and is worth... More

Lydiard park is great when you have a bit of sunshine. You can hire BBQ's for half a day or full day (can't take your own I don't think) which is fab. There are play areas for children, lovely walks, a lake, a café, ice cream kiosk, and a new rope trail park. However, that really isn't suitable for young... More
