Temple Newsam is one of our favourite ‘go to’ places as a family, with some beautiful walks, a great play area and of course Home Farm just some of the charms. But there are plans to make it EVEN better, with a £1.2 million proposal for a range of new leisure facilities.
Some of the fantastic proposals include;
- Several kilometres of walking and cycling trails to enable people of all ages and abilities to discover, and learn more about, previously little-known areas of the historic estate which was designed originally by famous landscape architect Capability Brown.
- The road safety park and an easy cycling trail, where children can learn to ride a bike in an original, fun and safe environment
- A brand new playground.
- A café will be provided in an attractive setting overlooking the park. It is suggested that the new café and toilet facilities are located in the existing golf clubhouse building, which will be adapted to host them while maintaining space for Temple Newsam Golf Club.
