Pensthorpe is a destination for discovery in Fakenham, North Norfolk
Our staggering 700-acre site includes five fabulous gardens and a species-rich nature reserve. Take a trail through wetlands and hedgerows, woodland and riverbanks, and duck into a bird hide along the way to get up close with feathered friends.
We are a family-friendly nature reserve with awesome activities for little nature lovers. From our impressive outdoor eco-friendly play area, WildRootz, to rope bridges and snaking slides inside Hootz House, there’s time for play whatever the weather. You don’t even need a park ticket to wet your beak at our café or stop in our shop for wildlife books, toys, bird feeders, and local produce.
Gardener’s World 2 for 1
We accept Gardener’s World 2 for 1 cards, meaning that with a valid card you get one free adult entry with every full-paying adult. If you’re booking online you need to purchase one adult/senior ticket and select one ‘Pre-Paid Admissions voucher’ for the offer. Ensure you bring your card with you on the day to get this offer.

Please note the card does not apply to events (walks and talks etc.) but it can be used during our half-term on days we have a family trail.
Pensthorpe allows free entrance to one essential carer, who provides proof of carer status, when accompanying a full paying person who is physically or mentally impaired. Check out our definition of a carer on our FAQ page.
