We're a proud
Dog Friendly Day Out

All dogs are welcome at Picton Castle & Gardens. With over 50 acres of grounds to explore, your four-legged friend can enjoy long walks and stunning gardens by your side.

Dogs must be kept on leads at all times to help protect visitors, wildlife, and plants, but there is still plenty to discover. With winding paths and new scents around every corner, Picton is the perfect destination for a dog-friendly day out.

Please note only guide dogs are allowed within the castle.

Dog Friendly Facilities

It's important that dog owners help keep our grounds clean and tidy.

We provide dog waste bins near the toilets and have complimentary bags available, so it is easy to help keep the gardens enjoyable for everyone.

Water bowls are also provided in the courtyard to keep your pups hydrated.

Dogs should not be left in hot cars. Our gardens provide plenty of shade on warm days for your pet to cool down.

Have been to many NT/RHS and other places, but Picton was way up there with the best!

The castle/house had a great feel to it, you could almost live there, very homely.  Garden was very well kept and we liked the general layout and especially the herb beds.

Restaurant food very good as well

Just wish it was closer for us to revisit!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A really lovely place to visit.

The castle has a very homely feel, unlike some stately homes. The staff were all really friendly and helpful.

There's a good tea shop and the gardens just go on and on. The plants are all in great condition, so if you are a garden fan or enjoy photographing interesting specimen plants, then this is a perfect place to go. You'll need at least 2-3 hours but could easily enjoy 4-5. There are both formal and informal planted areas - plus a woodland walk we didn't have time for.

There's a maze plus a wild board-walk and structures to keep kids amused.

Tickets are reasonable and valid for a few days if you're in the area.
