Arlington Court is an ideal stop if you are heading towards Lynton and Lynmouth or Ilfracombe just off the A39. (Clearly sign posted on Brown Signs).

As always if you are a member of The National Trust then entrance is free. If you are not a member then adults cost £10.00 and children £5.00 (as of August 2021, this is the non gift aid price).

Our visit

We visited Arlington Court as part of our Summer 2021 tour. Is has a number of different garden areas including a victorian rose garden and walled kitchen garden.

Arlington is home of the National Trust carriage museum (within the houses stable block). After visiting this we then went on a walk of the estate. This wasn’t as well sign posted as we have come to expect of the National Trust however we use the proved map and the landmarks along the way to find our way round.

Worth knowing

It is best to follow the estate walk starting from near the house rather than the carriage museum. There are two play areas as part of this walk. They are some way from the main house.
