Harewood House Leeds

GBFF returns to Harewood House this May Bank Holiday weekend.

Harewood House is an 18th century, Grade I listed building, with a 1,000 acre landscape, designed by Capability Brown. Part of the estate has been developed as the village in the ITV soap opera Emmerdale.

The Great British Food Festival at Harewood will be situated on the lawn right in front of the house. Your ticket to the event also includes free on-site parking and FREE access to the house, gardens, grounds and woodland trails around Harewood. We're hoping the Humboldt penguins will still be there (they are moving house in 2023). The house is open 11-4, last admission is at 3.30 through the main entrance.

Around Harewood there is lots going on: the popular adventure playground, courtyard area, the Farm Yard and woodland trails. Treat yourself to a refreshing Harewood G&T and soak up the views overlooking the Capability Brown Landscape from the Terrace and Tea Room.
