    Myself and 3 friends visited today what a bargain £34.95 afternoon tea and a tour of the house . Jonathan was very attentive and the afternoon tea was lovely . The grounds are beautiful and the history re the Harewood estate was very interesting . Would recommend All the staff were very friendly and full of information loved it .

    Really lovely place to visit. The grounds look amazing, but it was too cold, so I'll definitely have to go again when the warmer weather arrives.

    We used to love Harewood House with all the outside explorations. This is our 4th visit and we are not coming back again. We paid £22 per adult and £12 per child and looked forward to the tropical birds zoo, farm, playground and house. The house was fun and well decorated but with disappointment, we learned that the birds were gone. So we went to see the farm and it looked tired with few sad-looking goats and rabbits. Our lunch wasn't better. We ordered potato and curry soup, chips, jacket potato and rice with chilly. Out of all that only rice with chilly was hot. Everything else was barely warm. The playground was still well preserved but all the outside huts where we used to get hot drinks and ice cream were closed. Our 88-year-old grandmother and grandfather joined us an hour later for a coffee and they had to pay £22 each to enter. Rather expensive coffee and a disappointing visit. It was shocking that there is no concession price for elderlies.

    We were really looking forward to seeing the Christmas decorations as we had an amazing visit in 2019. It was so disappointing this year. Hardly any rooms were decorated and those that had been were not suited to this beautiful house. The time travelling theme seemed very misguided. I hope next years display will be more like that of 2019
