Reviews of Doddington Hall & Gardens

What a very impressive house. Lots to see and knowledgeable volunteers to answer any queries. The 'forgotten room' holds many curios from times past. The gardens are full of blooms with easy access. The kitchen garden is superb with produce used in the cafe and well stocked farm shop. Look out for the three sweet chestnut trees, around 450 years old. Ample free car parking on site and across the road.

A nice gem a short drive from Lincoln, with decent gardens (kitchen, grassy, flowers), a summer sculpture exhibition with 340 sculptures, and 12-15 rooms to walk through across three floors.
You could easily spend 45-75 minutes in the gardens, and 30-45 in the house if seeing things at a moderate pace.
The house was built late 16th century, and the free audio guides, mini books in each room with room highlights, volunteers, or paid guidebook all give additional information about the family and objects inside.
For sculptures, over 340 were positioned throughout the gardens from mid-July to mid-September, and included in the gardens ticket. Each has a number, and details of it and it's price can be found online or within a book for purchase. It's a wide variety in sizes, with many focusing on animals or modern interpretations.
House entry is by timed ticket, and though we were able to get one walking up for 1.25 hours later it could be worth prebooking at busy times.
It's also part of a few membership schemes, like Historic Houses, which gives a decent discount on tickets (£6.8 adults for garden & house vs. £13 regular).
Free parking across the road, and loos generally clean.
Also on site: cafes and shops with home goods and food items

Just brilliant! The house is incredibly interesting and the guides are very knowledgeable and have so many fun facts about the house. The gardens were just as great if one better! I am a professional gardener and I was so impressed by the upkeep of the formal gardens and topiaries. The walk around the gardens have a very fun activity to complete, the group I was with are all above the age of 25 and we had so much fun completing the activity and playing the games set out along the way! There is never a dull moment along the walk, and it was lovely and quiet as well despite being a bank holiday Monday! Will definitely be coming back again

Went for a traditional afternoon tea as a mother's day treat with my daughter. Could not fault the high standard of food and service. Lovely fresh sandwiches and cakes. The sausage roll was particularly yummy! Staff were friendly and attentive and showed excellent customer care. I will definitely return - next time to try the savoury afternoon tea as that looked good too.

A very enjoyable visit. A real sense of family home and being welcomed. Wonderful collection of all sorts, just the way a home should be. Lovely guides too, happy to share their knowledge. And probably the best farm shop I have ever been to - amazing!!
