Lydiard Park online: information and bookings

Steeped in history, Lydiard Park, a 260 acre park provides different activities and settings for all to enjoy. The park has been open to the public since 1955, but it’s history can be traced to 1086. Today you can enjoy farmland trails, woodland walks, or enjoy one of the Ranger Team’s exhibition along with a refreshing cup of tea at the Visitor Centre.
The Elizabethan House is the park’s focal point and is open on a daily basis to the public. Visitors can wander through the elegant ground floor apartments where original family furnishings are preserved alongside portraits and photographs of the St. John family who lived here from the Elizabethan times.

Towering Cedars of Lebanon, grass avenues and sweeping lawn reveal Lydiard’s formal parkland. Surfaced paths and trails through the woodland areas offer glimpses of the many birds and animals which make Lydiard their home, from green woodpeckers to Roe deer. In early spring the woodlands are carpeted with snowdrops, with bluebells and wild garlic pushing through in late spring.

The stream that feeds the brooks plays host to a myriad of invertebrates and small fish such as stone loach and sticklebacks. The small population of ducks will always welcome those with a crust to throw to them.
