Description

Cockington Country Park is a charming retreat combining history, art and natural beauty. The historic 16th century mansion is surrounded by a picturesque landscape with three ornamental lakes and manicured gardens.

A unique attraction is the village with its distinctive thatched cottages, 11th century church and the Drum Inn pub designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens.

Cockington Court is home to more than 20 craft studios, where visitors can watch artists at work, from glass blowing to blacksmithing. Numerous paths and trails are ideal for strolling through the Victorian landscape.

avatarRuth Webb2 weeks agoReally lovely place for a few hours out. There are a couple of craft centres and studios where you can watch the makers at work, the glass blowing was amazing! Nice cafe and clean toilets. A lovely 600+ year old church, walks and lakes too! Down into the village is a lovely pub called the Drum in which is reasonably priced and dog friendly 🐶 We parked on the carpark opposite the pub and Cockington crafts and Country Park are a 5-10 minute walk away.
avatarNigel Wright2 months agoWhat a beautiful little village, so peaceful and quiet. It's like you stepped back in time. We had some dinner at the weavers cottage tea garden, and the food was amazing. Which was followed by a beautiful cream tea, highly recommended, lol. Even the toilets was immaculate. Well done
avatarTina Cooke4 weeks agoAbsolutely stunning little village and the grounds here are incredible. It is a very dog friendly place, lots of water bowls out & plenty of trees for shade. Apart from parking, it is free to roam around and I would have paid to visit because it is so beautiful. We had a coffee in the grounds, usual coffee price and sat in the rose garden for a bit. There is a children's play area and toilets. This is somewhere I would most definitely visit again. It felt like a National Trust place without the cost of getting in.
