Clumber Park, Grade I listed park in Bassetlaw, England
Clumber Park is a large estate with woodland, gardens, and a wide lake in Bassetlaw, England. Paths lead through different areas, from open meadows to dense tree groves with old oaks and beeches.
The estate belonged to the Dukes of Newcastle until 1937, when the main house was demolished due to lack of funds. The gardens and woodland remained and later opened to the public.
The Gothic Revival chapel near the lakeside displays stained glass windows and pointed arches that visitors discover while walking. Families use the open lawns for picnics, while walkers follow the quiet woodland trails.
Bicycles can be rented on site to explore the long avenues and woodland paths more easily. The visitor center offers maps and information about the different routes and areas within the park.
The lime tree avenue stretches for two miles and holds more than 1000 trees planted in 1840. It is considered the longest continuous line of common limes in Europe.
