Killerton

The Second-hand Bookshop is open, and all money raised helps to care for Killerton. We gladly accept small donations of good quality books at the bookshop.

Dogs are allowed on short leads everywhere outside. Assistance dogs only in historic buildings, including the interior and terrace of the Killerton Kitchen Café. Dogs are welcome in the Stables Coffee Shop. Please keep dogs under close control around livestock.

Killerton Kitchen Café is located in the house, facing the garden and serves hot and cold food and drinks, sandwiches and light snacks. Assistance dogs only.

There are six EV charging points located in the first section of the visitor car park. They are type 2 sockets. They can be accessed using mobile app, RFID card, or contactless payment device. Visit our EV charging partner, RAW Charging's website (www.rawcharging.com/drivers) to download the app before your visit.

There are parking spaces on site. The surfaces of the main car parking are tarmac and/or gravel. The surface of the overflow car park is gravel and grass.

Inside the shop you'll find plenty of inspirational gifts and homeware items. All our delicious food range is made especially for us here in the UK by small artisanal producers using the finest, carefully sourced ingredients.

The Stables Coffee Shop is available to all visitors and and serves hot and cold food and drinks, sandwiches and light snacks. The Stables Coffee Shop also welcomes dogs and muddy boots.

Toilets are open in the visitor car park, by the house and in the garden.

Cycle parking (‘Sheffield’/inverted-U stand style) is available in the visitor car park by the entrance to the Stables. Cyclists are welcome. We’re happy to refill drinks bottles at the café or from dedicated fountains in the toilet blocks. A range of offroad cycle trails are available starting from the property and around the estate.

A map is available from Visitor Reception showing the garden paths, slopes and inclines. Path surfaces are tarmac or fine gravel. Paths are accessible with motorised mobility aids or children’s pushchairs. As a hillside site, manual or self-propelled wheelchair users may find the hills and slopes challenging.

There is a hardstanding, level path leading from the Stable block exit to the house. The level path leading to the garden and terrace then changes to a gravel surface.

Adapted toilets are in the car park (limited space), by the house and in the garden. Baby changing facilities are in the car park, by the house and in the garden.

The Tramper, an all terrain motorised scooter, is available to hire either for a morning (10am-12.30pm) or afternoon session (1pm-3.30pm). Please telephone us in advance for more information on routes and to make a booking by calling 01392 881345 or email killerton@nationaltrust.org.uk

There are 10 designated spaces for disabled visitors where the parking area surface is tarmac and 10 additional spaces on a gravel surface, all approximately 75 metres from visitor reception. Visitors parking in accessibility spaces do not need to obtain a parking ticket.

There are a number of benches with and without arms around the main garden route and chapel grounds. Sit-able chairs are positioned in most rooms in the house. Most do not have armrests. Please ask a volunteer to point out the chairs that can be used.

An induction loop system is in place by the tills in Visitor Reception, Killerton Kitchen Café, The Stables Coffee Shop and the shop.

Visitor Reception is accessed through the original, uneven, cobbled stable yard. This may cause difficulty for some visitors, please ring the bell located under the entrance archway for assistance.

Any of our guides can be printed in alternative formats. Please contact us 01392 881345 or email killerton@nationaltrust.org.uk for assistance.

A bell to ring to request for a buggy driver for transport to the house is to be found on the side of the grey kiosk in the car park. The buggies operate between 11am and 3.30pm and are run by volunteers. The buggies aren't able to accommodate wheelchairs. The buggy service can be used to avoid the cobbled visitor reception area.

Killerton Kitchen Café has seating on two levels. The first area has level access from the garden.

Manual wheelchair loans are available from visitor reception (two available on a first come, first served basis) during normal opening hours.
