Superb place to visit in Leeds. The farm is good for kids to learn aspects of farming and how a farm uses to operate years ago. Also, a barn has been used to create a large hay maze that the kids can run around on top of. Temple Newsam house is a real gem, more for the adult visitor rather than children, but older children would probably enjoy it. It's a superb example of a house of its period and the tour is well worth the money. It's also a reasonable price to enter. At the latter part of the year they do a 'twighlight' tour that explores the cellars, all a bit spooky but good fun. Great cafe and gift shop too with friendly staff, and a really great play park next to the car park. Lastly the park is beautiful in any weather, if you do go, try to explore all of it, especially the walled garden and its greenhouse and the ponds and woodlands. There's also a 'GoApe' section of the woods next to the car park for the visitor looking for a more extreme day out

A very large park that is popular with Leeds' many different peoples, I walk the dog here at least once a day and give her a treat from the Stables cafe, the park itself is in parts quite tatty, but Leeds city council does not employ enough staff to clear away the endless leaf detrius and broken branches and trees that are now falling like dominoes which are a safety hazard littering the most popular walking areas. My other bugbear is the state of the house and paths walls which are seriously falling apart, bits are being done, but not enough to stop serious deterioration to the infrastructure, the shameful state of a once fabulous gift to the city.

I didn’t get to Temple Newsam to see the rhododendrons as planned this year, but did manage to fit in a quick visit today. The grounds really are magnificent! I love the walled garden and the many paths which lead around the estate. We also visited the tea rooms for a late lunch-friendly staff and lovely food; generous portion sizes too. You can explore the grounds for free but there are charges to visit the house, farm and Go Ape (we passed this as we headed back to eat-looks like great fun!) Parking is free except for the carpark nearest the drive in entrance which is £4.70; this can be paid online or by visiting the gift shop. Recommended!

This is a large park with loads of green space and good play areas. The farm is £4 for Adults and £2.70 for children with under 5’s free. The farm is really good and has a play area that is only accessible from the farm. There are lots of cobbles so even though it has disabled access it is very bumpy. The cafe is reasonable, the shop is very over priced - £2.75 for a jumbo cookie, £2.50 for a caramel slice. There is lots of outdoor space for eating, but if it is wet there is not enough indoor space on busy days. There is also a ‘go-ape’ adventure and you can pay extra to go into the house if you feel the need. Have fun!

It must be one of Leeds city councils gems massive park area with woodland with follies rodededrum different types of cattle in the fields a farm area for children to visit ponds play areas .There are just endless out door opportunities lots of events all year round !! The house views on to the house are spectacular what a stunning build beautiful to wander through its rooms and halls wow just wow .Come and see this gem any time of year you will be amazed and it belongs to the city of leeds .Now the children play ground is safe safe good fun

Beautiful area. Full of beautiful plants and wildlife. I saw many species' of plants and animals there (including a wild deer) and had a wonderful time walking more than ten miles in its vast expanse. I highly, highly recommend. It makes a great outing for people of all ages and is definitely suitable for trained dogs where they can happily run off lead. There are also some pretty streams and lakes to look at.

Farm area visit. Not too expensive, although disappointed they didn't have John deer peddle tractors open, that area under renovation with the promise of a new kids area to come. Educational play area still looking a bit run down, and no bees to view, piglets were cool. Hope the price doesn't go up when they reopen the area. Main play park also could do with some tlc, pully out of service this week.

It's a decent venue with a range of attractions (farm, go ape, playground, courtyard Market, manner house and gardens). The house is priced lower than its national trust or HHA equivalent, however the extensive grounds are free to visitors, therefore great value. There is plenty of space to fly a kite or kick a ball about if you need to exercise children and teens alike.

Very nice. Took my fiends dog out for a walk not knowing the grounds. Sound myself exploring the trails and paths. Grounds are very well kept and the wildlife seems very happy. Great of you want to have a long walk or exercise with views.
Dog-friendliness
Lots to explore and plenty of poop bins
Picnic area
Lots of places to set down.

A fabulous friendly park where I walk my dog daily. Some great circular walks through fields, along tracks and through some fabulous woodland. Also good tarmac paths within the central part of the park. A children's playground, 3 small lakes, shops, cafe and farm for the little ones. Easy parking with lots of car parks one of which is chargeable.

An amazing place but what a disgraceful amount of rubbish there is there today after a festival last night. Hardly anyone out clearing it up and the pigs are currently eating plastic bags and chewing on empty cans of Heineken. If you’re going to put on a festival at least make arrangements to clear up expeditiously.

Great afternoon visit here. Really nice well preserved Elizabethan house. I think it's older in places, but predominantly it's of this style. Many of the furniture and fittings are original which is rare in many houses of this age. Fantastic expansive grounds, walled garden and farmyard animals for kids.

One of the best parks in Leeds, it's a great place to bring the kids, going for walks and activities. Plenty of parking and a variety of events in the peak months. If you're into photography you can find some great shots here which include shots of the cityscape in certain areas. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place to visit and loads to do and see had a few farm visits with the kids and many of walks around the estate with some beautiful views. Next stop will be the house tour can't wait. Has a long history which is very interesting to learn about. For a family day out I highly recommend

Tired tired tired! Needs completely pulling down and a new play area in its place. This park is next to the main car park for the temple newsam estate. It's visited all day long and is so worn out. Lots of damaged equipment, rotting wooden features, and peeling paint .

Great to walk and is very nice. The house isn't cheap but is amazing inside. Free parking and lots of places to walk. All ways an ice cream van there and a nice cafe. Park run on Saturdays which is fun and there is always space for a picnic and place for kids to play.

One of my favourite places in Leeds. It has a farm, brilliant playground, lots of open space, lakes, woods and other walks and adventure tales. Never get bored of templenewsham. Only thing. The farm,and the house,close on Monday, as do most leeds city council places.

Grown up round the corner and it always amazes me this place to say its in such a big city as Leeds, when your here you really wouldn't think so, especially on a crisp winters morning or a warm summer evening. Lots of things to do or not to do.

Fantastic Park located a short distance East of Leeds. Easy access from the A1/M1 link road. Clean & tidy, great gardens, park run, Manor house Museum, reasonable price & a good day out. Small farm to occupy the little ones. Well worth a visit.

Great spot. Free parking & lovely grounds. Courtyard and shop is pleasant and keenly priced. Farmyard is well worth a visit especially when it's lambing season. Kids play area is large and, there is lots of space for dog walking and picnics.

Amazing place. We love feeding ducks, the country walks, the rose garden and victorian glasshouse, the cafe, the farm, the play area, the allotment area , the large open grasslands and free parking!. As a family we attend Temple Newsam park

Don't go as often as I could, cosindering it's not far. Went with my children today, walking our dog and enjoying an ice cream in the shade. It's really great for a walk around with family and or friends, there's a cafe to get refreshment

The best public park in Leeds but as all public spaces, there is not the money to maintain the place. Also they allow the staff to park adjacent to the Elizabethan house. So if you like to take pictures. Then this is a big let down.

Nice place, 3 car parks(1 pay and display others are free) good for a nice walk mainly tarmac paths so good for prams and stuff. Cafe and toilets available and a farm at an extra cost.All social distancing measures in place.

Heritage Square is a charming park with a touch of history. The preserved architecture and informative plaques provide a glimpse into the past. It's a great place for a leisurely stroll and to soak in some local culture.

Temple Newsam is a lovely park with something for everyone. Lots of open spaces for playing, great for walking, a cafe, a farm for the kids, great mountain biking, lovely gardens and a fantastic period house to explore.

Beautiful park and grounds, House is impressive and farm is great for kids. Visited the newly refurbished cafe but found it to be on expensive side for what you get and choice is very limited so was left disappointed.

There was a lot off rubbish in the pond but it's a nice park lots of places to walk
Dog-friendliness
Lots off room to run off lead and play fetch watch out lots of squirrels near the go ape end off the park

In many many ways the best park in Leeds. Loads of history. Fantastic walks great for kids and fogs. Nice cafe but Leeds City council run it so a tad pricy. Nice staff though well worth a visit. Go just go.

Really lovely park on the edge of the city with great walks. Would be even better without all the discarded rubbish everywhere. Managed to fill one carrier in just 6 minutes of walking. Such a shame.

Good place to take ur dog's for a day out nice walk round the lake also plenty of grass areas. Nice for picnics with family& friends there is a place for food. Also play area for children. Xxx

A big green space on the outskirts of Leeds. There are acres of grassland where you can simply picnic and play games, there is the house and farm to visit, and the gardens, lake and walks.

Very nice big spacious park. Lots of goats cattle and sheep. You can pet some. They have pigs as well. It's a really big place and lots of events are held there all through the year.

Great place for the family day out. The cafe has had a makeover too and although it has lost some of the homely feel, it's much more functional, which is great with a family in tow.

Outstanding area of heritage and natural beauty that is free for dogwalkers and hikers. The farm and house tours are understandably extra, but it can be a day out on any budget.

Lovely place for a walk. We walked 5km with our 7 month old baby in our all terrain pram and it was a great walk. We parked in one of the free car parks and had a lovely walk.

Great big park. Large house,home farm ,Go Ape tree top experience.walled garden for quiet time is my favourite bit.dogs allowed and kids can play football as plenty of space.

Really great park. Good dor walks, cycling, flying model planes and dog walking. Currently spoilt a little by the collection of pikeys camping near the entrance (Sept 2022).

Vast park with a farm for the kids, large lake and other attractions. Large stately home for the adults to visit. The playground is excellent and popular with the children.

I did my race for life today i strolled it with my sister and my best friend who her race for life for the first time and we all really enjoyed it its a beautiful place

Great park. Good for dog walking, picnics and family day out. Lots to fo visit the house, farm or cafe. Lovely gardens and visit the green house, lovely when in bloom.

A great afternoon out. The house is full of history and well worth a visit. The farm is home to many rare breeds. There's plenty of space for picnics and ball games.

Superb for a brisk walk and the staff have made it easier for us to get round the woodland paths but why are there no ducks and only one Swan on the lakes???

Great place to explore, especially with kids or dogs. Surprisingly there's a lot of things to do and now with a Go Ape there it has plenty of fun potential

Beautiful place that I am very lucky to have on my doorstep. Great for dog walking or a picnic with the kids. Gets very busy when the weather is nice.

Large park with large playground, tea rooms, urban farm, gardens & large extent of woods to explore again & again in addition to a stately home.

Lovely walk on the grounds ,surrounded by people taking picnics and cyclists and dog walkers..very clean in all area so good for all families..

Well worth a visit and some cracking walks
Playground
kids play area plus " Go Ape " for kids & Adults
Restrooms
cafe and toilets

Omg have never been to any where like it.Deb's cellar tour was an inspiration.So many rooms and treasures.Massive well done to Leeds council.

Great area for dog walks and children's play (including Go Ape climbing area). Good parking and a nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seating.

Plenty of space and few people outside the central area. The hall is very interesting and relatively cheap to visit. Superb for walking dogs

Lovely parklands. Lots of things to do. Lots of walks for you and your dog with a nice cafe for a coopa and a piece of cake. Recommended.

A nice walk and ice cream on a sunny Sunday. Plenty of parking but a bit slow to get out. 3 year old loved the kids outdoor play area.

Walked the Perimeter on a beautiful sunny day, Thursday 12th. Walking by the stream lakes below house very mild amd windless.

Great gardens and countryside. They need to fix up the old "temple" before it decays further. Rest is beautifully maintained.

Always nice at temple newsom. Great for a god walk, jog or just a meet up and chill with friends. A must for a nice day out.

Lots of things to see. Clean. Perfect for a walk, read a book under the tree, spend time with familly or taking a pictures.

Beautiful gardens, great for a day out. Shame the house and farm cost so much for entry. Still worth a visit on a nice day.

Love this place, lots of open space and cated for gardens. Great walks and park free of charge. Farm and cafe on site too.

A great place for a walk always something happening good little cafe it's got a room for the dog walkers amongst you all.

Huge area with something for everyone; stately home, walled gardens, petting zoo, playgrounds, dog friendly and woodland.

Lots of beautiful green space here. Lovely gardens too. Does get busy at popular times as there's not a lot of parking.

Beautiful park, highly recommend the Walled Gardens. Great place for dog walking and/or for a day out with the kids.

Great - lots of space and the rhododendrons are starting to come out. Service in the café could be quicker though

Very poor. House closed. No info saying so. Farm ok but very rough cobbles made disabled walking very difficult.

Great park. Lots of different walks. The laburnum arch was in full bloom and the rhododendrons were beautiful.

Great for a lovely stroll. The dog loves walking the through the woods. Really nice house and grounds too.

Great place to take your dog or the kids for long walks and visit the house, highly recommend coming here

Loads of different walking routes. Rhododendrons are great just now (mid May). Courtyard cafe is good.

Fantastic day out with dogs or children. Lovely gardens, walks, kids play park and cafe too.

Beauty on our doorstep. Love this place, great for walks, runs, family time, fog walkers etc

Great place to visit, with fantastic scenes and trail route to do.

Brilliant free parking lots of things to do helpful staff ....

Great park when it's not occupied by concerts and travellers

Stunning park. Well worth it for the Saturday Park Run too!

The place is an absolute joy anytime. So we'll maintained!
