Have you ever wanted to peek inside the grand Wentworth Castle? Now’s your chance!

Take a peek inside the grand house at the centre of the estate on a select number of volunteer-led tours through Wentworth Castle, now Northern College.

Marvel at its intricate ceilings and grand staircases as the route winds through a selection of the house’s finest rooms.

Tickets are £8, plus normal admission. Booking is essential.

Under 5's are included with an adult ticket, but the tour is recommended for children aged 10 and up. As the tour route involves several sets of stairs, buggies or prams may be limiting.

The route involves several staircases and long stretches of uneven floor. If you have additional accessibility requirements, please get in touch in advance so that we can make suitable arrangements.

The tours will run from 10.30am, 11.30am, 12.30pm, and 1.30pm each day that the house is open to the public. The tours are expected to last 75-90 minutes.

As Northern College is a working college, the tour route may vary based on availability of the rooms on the day.
