Explore Temple Newsam House as you’ve never seen it before. Our exclusive Rooftop and Cellar Tour invites you into the hidden spaces of one of Britain’s finest historic houses.

The experience starts with and introduction to this stunning house and collections. 

You will then go behind the scenes and descend to the depths! Venture below ground into the atmospheric cellars, where servants once bustled, and secrets linger in the shadows. Discover how these spaces were used over the centuries.
