Sewerby Hall & Gardens

Our View

Sewerby Hall and Gardens is uniquely situated in a dramatic clifftop position with spectacular views over Bridlington. It is set in 50 acres of early 19th-century parkland, and offers something for everyone, from magnificent, award-winning gardens to the deep rooted heritage of the house. The house has been transformed using furniture from the Victoria and Albert Museum and other nationally important collections, so you can take a trip back to the 1900s to see how Sewerby Hall would have looked. There is also an exhibition on aviator, Amy Johnson (1903-1941). The zoo is the place to keep the children amused, with a fascinating collection of animals and birds. Highlights are the ring-tailed lemurs (fed at 2pm daily) and the Humboldt penguins (fed at 3pm daily). Visitors can pre-book their very own animal encounter with the penguins. Sewerby Hall and Gardens has a varied events programme from craft fairs to car rallies, Wacky Walks to Magic Days which all adds up to make a great day out. The children’s adventure playground has a nautical theme which will appeal to children of all ages. If the kids are feeling more energetic then you could buy an orienteering pack with everything you need to map your way around the estate or an Adventurer’s Guide full of activities, puzzles, quizzes and much more. Sport-lovers may enjoy the nine-hole pitch and putt golf course, the 18-hole putting green, a FootGolf course as well as Crown Green Bowling. The gatehouses and lodge to the estate near the entrance have been converted into three luxury holiday cottages. Available throughout the year, they can be booked by visiting the Sewerby Hall and Gardens website.
