About this place
Temple Newsam Playground is a well-equipped play space within the Temple Newsam Estate grounds, with something for children across a wide age range. You'll find swings, slides, climbing frames, a tunnel slide, roundabouts, a maze, and plenty of open space to run around. It's close to the estate's cafe and toilets, which is handy when you need a break or a snack.
The playground is open from 8am to 10pm Monday to Saturday, and 10am to 4pm on Sundays. There's wheelchair-accessible parking and entrance, though parking is paid. Parents report it can be quiet, which means your children might get a good run of the equipment without too much crowding. It's a good spot if you want play equipment combined with access to the beautiful grounds of the estate itself.
