A bus journey from Bristol leads to Tyntesfield, a stunning National Trust estate perfect for outdoor lovers and families.
Bristol: You know how buses can be a bit of a hassle sometimes? Well, if you’re looking for a nice day out, there’s a bus that takes you to a lovely National Trust estate just outside the city. It’s called Tyntesfield, and it’s a real gem.
The X6 bus will get you there in about 23 minutes, traffic permitting. It’s a pretty straightforward ride, and it’ll only cost you £2.40 each way. Not too shabby, right?
Once you arrive, you’ll find this stunning Victorian Gothic house surrounded by beautiful gardens and parkland. There’s even a café and a shop to check out. Perfect for a little break after exploring!
Now, if you’re not a National Trust member, the entry fees are reasonable. For adults, it’s about £22 during the warmer months, and kids get in for half that. Families can save a bit too, which is always a plus.
And if you’re bringing your furry friend along, Tyntesfield is dog-friendly in most areas. Just keep them on a lead, and they can enjoy the big lawns and woodlands with you.
There’s also a lovely woodland walk that’s about 2.4 miles long, perfect for a leisurely stroll. Plus, the gardens are gorgeous, especially in spring and summer when everything is in bloom.
Don’t forget to check out the Home Farm Café for a bite to eat. It’s set in a charming old dairy and has some tasty options. There are also play areas for kids, making it a great spot for families.
If you’re looking for something fun to do this weekend, hop on the bus and head to Tyntesfield. It’s a lovely escape from the city, and you’ll be glad you did!
