Belongs to the National Trust so if you are a member then entrance is free. Disabled car parking. Large car park. The house is well worth a visit with staff who are very well informed. The grounds are extensive with lots of walks or sit on a chair and watch the world go by. At the moment the Snow Drops are out, took a picture but does do them justice. The Daffodils are starting to come through and will look magnificent when out. Restaurant inside and out dogs are welcomed in most areas.

Simply delightful and well worth a visit. There is an exceptional pub near the main entrance too. We visited with our rescue Beagle who is elderly but thoroughly enjoyed the long walks around the grounds and through the soft grassy meadows. An impressive house surrounded by a shallow but wide moat, with adjoining charming chapel. Very friendly, excellent tea rooms. Look for the rocking horse in the bay window. Highly recommended.

Oxburgh estate is a great place to bring the family and enjoy history, architecture, and nature. We used a free national trust voucher, otherwise membership is the most economical way to visit. There are extensive walled gardens to explore first up, then you emerge into an open area with the grand house and its well kept moat. The house has undergone some expensive refurbishment and is looking in great condition. (£6 million later) The walk around the house is really interesting with helpful guides dotted about. There is a cafe and a shop in the central courtyard. We brought flask and a picnic to save on a cafe spend. The priests hole was a highlight. Then the 3rd part of the trip is a walk around the grounds. Although the house is incredible, the walk was my highlight because some of the trees are so amazing. There are very old well established varieties that we really enjoyed, then the walk is easy underfoot and as long as you would like to make it. Dogs welcome in any area outside.

Just when you'd thought you had seen everything that the National Trust could throw at you(in terms of fantastic properties) you pick another superb estate to experience and it makes it's way straight into your personal top three. The estate I'm talking about is Oxburgh Estate,it is in my mind the best National Trust house (I say house loosely) that we have visited so far, don't miss it.

We went here for the first time ever and loved it the second we saw the estate. There was lots to do here,a great house (on the inside and outside) and stunning walks. The food was amazing and two walks joined together to make the perfect walk. Would recommend you go here!

Oxburgh is well worth a visit and reasonably priced entrance fee. Three stars is given purely because areas were closed due to (much needed) renovation work and the current owners living in a part of it. You could get food and drink but currently, only snack type items and hot and cold drinks. On completion, I have no doubt it will look stunning. There are plenty of lavatories scattered about, second hand book and plant sales, plus the 'obligatory' gift shop. The day was overcast but this didn't detract from our visit. There are various walks and you can meander around the gardens. Well worth a day out
