FAQs
We welcome dogs in the grounds as long as they’re kept on a lead at all times and in all areas of the grounds including Lake Walk and Woodland Walk and even on the Rowing Boats. With the exception of assistance dogs, dogs or other animals are not allowed inside the cafés, restaurants, shops, Castle, mazes, play areas or Festival Theatre. There are water bowls provided for them at both our Moat Café and at the Guthrie Pavilion Restaurant where there is also outside seating. There is a stand where dogs can be tied and left in the Castle Courtyard if you wish to visit the castle, but this is not supervised and they are left at your own risk. We request that you do not leave dogs in your car whilst visiting on warm days. Dogs are not permitted in the Luxury Bed & Breakfast accommodation.
Please clear up after your dog.
We do allow picnics, there are a few picnic benches located outside the Hever Shop. Otherwise, you are welcome to bring your own picnic to enjoy at one of the many picnic areas in the grounds. Horse Shoe Lawn provides a perfect setting with sun and shade and a picturesque castle view. Half Moon Lawn is another popular choice with views of the pond, fountain and pretty bridges across the moat. Venture further afield and you will discover Two Sisters’ Lawn adjacent to the Theatre which is surrounded by delightful flower beds and an abundance of ornamental trees. Or follow signs for Lake Walk and choose a secluded spot.
The Moat Café serves a wide range of hot and cold meals. The food is seasonal and so changes often but you can expect to find a selection of fresh baguettes and sandwiches, light bites such as quiche and soup and full meals such as lasagne or fish and chips. Children’s portions are also available. If you have any special dietary requirements please let us know. Find out more about our Eateries.
