Health and safety advice

We want your visit to be safe and enjoyable. We hope you have a day to remember for all the right reasons, so below are a few points to bear in mind when you visit one of our palaces.

• Our palaces are very old and have many uneven surfaces, for example cobbles, worn steps, uneven steps and slopes. Please choose footwear that is comfortable and appropriate for the conditions.

• Some surfaces may be slippery, particularly if they are wet from rain.

• Light levels can be low in some places, so please allow sufficient time for your eyes to adjust, particularly when using stairs.

• In some of our gardens we have steep slopes and drops from height, so please be aware of these, especially if you have children with you.

• Where water features are present, please ensure children are supervised at all times.

• Look out for our safety signs and follow the advice given to avoid spoiling your day.
