  • Coach trip to Wentworth Woodhouse and Blyth Priory
    09:00 -17:00
    09/09/2026

    Wentworth Woodhouse (near Rotherham) is one of the grandest stately homes in the country with a suite of State Rooms containing a large art collection, all set in an extensive garden and parkland. It is operated by its own Preservation Trust which runs facilities for visitors including a café. The site is generally accessible for those with limited mobility. The church of St Mary & St Martin, Blyth is the remaining part of a mediaeval Benedictine Priory and is particularly noted for a mural of the Last Judgement.

    Adult (17+) admission to the house & garden is £16.50. Entry is free to Historic Houses members, there is a 25% reduction for National Trust members and a 50% reduction for Art Fund members. Bookings (including those with discounts) can be made online https://wentworthwoodhouse.digitickets.co.uk/tickets

    Depart Derby Bus Station at 9.00am – return about 5.00pm.

Please note we need a minimum number of bookings by Friday 21 August to run the coach, so please book early. You will receive an automatic refund from Eventbrite if the trip does not run.
