The site is easy to access from the A1, off the A183 and the North East main line is within easy reach of the park with stations at Chester-le-Street, Durham and Newcastle, bringing London, Edinburgh, Inverness and Glasgow within commutable distance.

Lambton Park has hosted many a event. One of the most memorable dates to the 1970s when the estate was a wild wildlife safari park.

Spread over 200 acres, the lions were the park’s main attraction, but there were also zebras and giraffes, mostly supplied by Jimmy Chipperfield of the famous circus family. Asian elephants, camels, bears, ostriches and baboons were some of the other Lambton regulars. The park was also home to the world’s second largest land mammal, the white rhino.

Lambton Park still offers some of the most beautiful landscape in the country, right on our doorstep, and the Estate is home to numerous grand buildings.

The Park is the perfect mix of woodland walks, quiet roads and rolling fields, with a stunning backdrop of the Lambton Castle, which dates back to the 1820s.
