This week the State Rooms have been transformed for the 2nd Burghley Flower Festival. Eight local flower societies have helped bring the House to life with their magnificent displays. The Festival runs until Sunday 16th October (closed on 14th) from 11am until 5pm (last admission 4.30pm). Entrance to the Flower Festival is included in the normal admission price.
We are also honored with a visit from the Princess Royal who is coming to launch the new prestigious Diamond Wood at Burghley. Woodland at Burghley has been chosen as one of the 60 flagship sites as part of an ambitious project to celebrate the Queen's Jubliee.
The new woodland and open spaces will create an extended habitat for wildlife such as Barn Owls and Skylarks. For more information please visit the Woodland Trust website. |
