Amazing hall and gardens. The staff in the hall were very welcoming and knowledgeable. The rooms are beautifully laid out and information available throughout. The marble entrance (not actually made of marble) is an impressive feature. Excellent facilities (cafe and shop) and both a coffee station and ice cream van available at the entrance to the Walled Garden. And drinking water taps in the cafe area to refill bottles. All were much appreciated on a very hot summers day. The walled garden is large, with a wide variety of plants including vines, vegetable beds and beautiful roses. Definitely worth a visit, would recommend but please note it is not open every day. I only discovered that because I bought our tickets in advance!

Went to Holkham Hall today to see the walled garden. Great place to walk around, lots of unusual plants. There was a circus work shop for the children on half term. Coffee Van with a seating area. An ice cream van near the entrance to the gardens . Disabled car park next-door to the entrance of the gardens. Also walked around the lake to the hall and the gift shop/café. Lots of geese and there gosling by the lake. Deer in the park. This place was easy to find, well organised and lots to do. There's cycle hire if you don't want to walk. Large car park (£6.50) per day

Lovely grounds lots of deer. Only downside is when you walk to walled garden it's a 3 mile round walk from car park that isn't mentioned

We didn’t go into the hall as it wasn’t open today but the surrounding areas were so serene and picturesque. Lovely cafe and good food options.

A re-visit. When I was 8 we arrived early but the fountain wasnt on. A lady turned it on for us (probably due to be turned on) and I never forgot. Such a lovely place. Went on tractor ride around the grounds. Was interesting to hear about the sustainability of the place. Restaurant great. All staff friendly
