Meet Bartie!

The Green Team’s mascot is Bartie the Squirrel! Bartie leads all of our green-themed activities and we’re sure that he’s going to be a hit with both younger and older guests alike.

Join Bartie on his Woodland Walk and follow a series of pathways through the woodland to discover all the different species of trees in our beautiful grounds. On each tree of interest, you’ll find a secret door at its base and behind each door, you’ll discover all the fascinating details and history that surround the tree. We also have a couple of top-secret places that Bartie has suggested, where you can stop, take a rest and soak up the atmosphere of our wonderful woodland.

You can also explore Bartie’s Rockery Garden. Originally a private garden created for the Birley family who were the original owners of the house, this gorgeous garden is 150 years old and is the perfect place to stop for a picnic or just relax and admire the scenery.
