Opening Times
The details of opening times at Harewood vary with the seasons. We are often able to accommodate schools and colleges outside normal opening hours. For example by prior arrangement your class can visit the House before it is open to the public, between 9.30 am and 11.00am. You may also consider visiting in late spring or early autumn. These tend to be quieter times when the trees at Harewood can be very lovely.


Prices and Discounts
We offer schools and colleges special discounts on general admission. Prices are as follows (Weekdays only):

Pupils £6 each
1 adult free per 10 pupils
(extra adults £6 each)
