• Twelve state rooms are always available for viewing, occasionally we also offer access to the private apartments, including the Parrot Bedroom, Libraries and Chapel. The opening of these areas is at the family's discretion and cannot be guaranteed.
• There is full disabled access in the museum, shop and cafe.  Our stair-climbing machine in the hall offers unrestricted access for most manually operated wheelchairs, click here for more information. The Walled Gardens are accessible, however the terrain is uneven in places.
• The terraces around the hall are closed.
• Holkham Hall is a lived in family home and on rare occasions may be closed to the public at short notice and these opening details may be subject to change.
