The enclosed garden at Shaw's Corner provides the perfect location for a family visit. From children's trails to garden games, there's plenty on offer.

Planning your visit

Here's some information to help make your family visit to Shaw's Corner as easy to enjoy as possible:

  • The paths around the garden are pushchair friendly.
  • There is a toilet but no baby changing facilities. If you need somewhere to change your child then please speak to a member of our team. 
  • The garden is enclosed with gated entry. 
  • There is plenty of space for picnics and we have a small selection of ice creams, snacks, hot and cold drinks available to purchase. 
  • Please help yourself to the garden games we have available to borrow. Please note the garden is not suitable for ball games. 

Easter Adventures: Bug's Life

Bugs are great for the garden, but cause mischief in historic houses! This spring, enjoy learning about the bugs that call Shaw’s Corner home and help put them back where they belong on our Easter garden trail.
