Knebworth House is is a very unusual gothic Mansion set on a hill surrounded by lovely Parkland. The House and Gardens really are worth exploring. There is an adventure playground for children. Knebworth horse some fantastic events in the past Led Zeppelin the Rolling Stones and other great bands. The rally of the Giants the famous American car show was also held here for a number of years to which I was a regular visitor. Very easy to get to to straight off the main road.

Visited for the Christmas market, please ensure next time that there is a one way system, it is way too crowded and you can't move

Lovely place but the hall is back to front the dance floor is where you go back and forth to the toilet which can be a little bit awkward.

We absolutely loved our visit to Knebworth House! The house is a stunning example of gothic architecture and is stuffed with so much history and interesting stories. The grounds are well maintained and great to walk round and perhaps take a picnic too. There is also an adventure playground and dinosaur trail for kids. The cafe is clean and has a variety of food offerings, although their vegetarian/vegan range seemed slightly limited. The toilets are clean and there are baby changing facilities as well. Plenty of parking although the signage leading to the parking could be better but these were only slight niggles. All in all, an amazing place to visit and we can't wait to return!

Great place. We were 2 adults & a 4.5 age child. Walked the lovely grounds & gardens first, with maze dinosaur Park, brass rubbing, sculptures etc. Had our picnic at one of the tables outside and then moved to the Adventure Playground. Great area with huge slides. Would thoroughly recommend this place. Also had good parking areas. Wasn't busy at all on the day we went in July.

What a fabulous place to visit, so much History and with the family still living there made it feel more comfortable and welcoming. We decided to take a guided house tour, our guide called Roy was absolutely brilliant he had so much knowledge and presented all the information in a fun and entertaining manner. Listening to someone who had so much passion for the place made it so much more interesting, than walking around and looking at things on your own, I'm sure we learnt so much more. Would definitely recommend.The grounds were also very good and there were a lot of things for children to do (although we didn't have children with us) adventure playground, dinosaur walk.
Lovely country house steeped in history with an illustrious visitors' book - QE1, Dickens, Churchill, JM Barrie, AA Milne, Mick Jagger ...A shame that you need to go on crowded, overlapping house tours, albeit with charming, knowledgeable guides.Found the lovely quiet gardens and majestic, ancient trees more to my taste. If only those trees could talk!!

I took my family to the Medieval Jousting on Father's Day (yesterday). What a great day it was, they all thoroughly enjoyed the show and there was plenty to do if you pay for the whole experience of Knebworth. The house itself is amazing and full of so much history and the garden walk was a wonderful site. They also had an Archery club stationed nearby where for just £2 you could enjoy a quick game, the club were tremendous people who were very friendly. The Jousting was spectacular and very entertaining, they really got involved with the crowd too. I would recommend this to anyone who has not been before as it really was a grand day out and easily the best father's day I've ever had.

Nice for a family day out. Knebworth house was beautiful. The tour was well guided. The dinosaur trail was fun for the kids. There were around 70 different dinosaurs. The woodland trail was ok. The adventure park was good. They had a Pop up theatre ? near the main house. The Luna theatre; the sound was pretty good and the screen was massive. Excellent for summer nights.

Visited with grandchildren. Very impressed at the amount of activities in the Fort area. All looked extremely well maintained and safe. There was something for all ages. The slides were great fun for all. A visit to the maze and then the dinosaur trail completed a fun packed day. Lots of covered areas to picnic and the toilets were very clean. Would love to return to see more of the gardens and visit the house. Just feel a return visit for myself to visit the house and gardens at a cost of £18 is quite expensive as the play park would unfortunately not be on my agenda! Would definitely recommend for a family day out.

Absolutely wonderful day out!I took my 2 year old here for a fun afternoon and the grounds, house and gardens here are absolutely stunning.The volunteers were super caring and helpful along with the parking being super easy and convenient. There’s a dinosaur walk for kids (and adults alike!) which is actually seriously awesome, we both loved it!Would come back time and again!
