Wallington Hall
Travel Information and nearby accommodation
A 17th century Palladian mansion, the home of the Trevelyan and Blackett families. The exterior is restrained, but not so the interior, which is a splendid example of ebullient rococo plastering. The house stands in extensive landscape gardens, designed by Sir Walter Blackett in the style of Capability Brown.
There is a further connection with Brown at Wallington; the famed garden designer attended school at the estate village. In the grounds is a walled garden, which features a conservatory, and a wide selection of plant varieties.
The interior features collections of paintings, ceramics, period needlework and doll's-houses. The house is usually open from Spring to the end of October. Check the National Trust website for current details. The grounds are open from dawn to dusk, year round, and the walled garden is also open year round. There is also an ongoing programme of events, including music, dance, and open-air theatre.
The grounds offer the opportunity for long walks, and there are a series of walks leaflets available explaining the routes. Wallington possesses the largest farm shop of any National Trust property in the north east of England, and the shop is open all year, offering local produce including, meat, game, organically milled flour, baked goods, and smoked Craster salmon among other taste-tempting treats.
Garden: Naturalistic landscaped gardens in the style of 'Capability' Brown complement the Northumberland moorland setting. Lots of room to stretch your legs along lawns, lakes and woodlands; or sit on a quiet bench in the enchanting walled garden and enjoy the blooms.
