WHY IS THERE AN ADDITIONAL £2 CHARGE FOR HAREWOOD AND WHAT IS THIS FOR?

Emmerdale is filmed deep within the Harewood Estate.

To gain access to the film set location, we run a park and ride service from the Harewood House visitor car park.

Our park and ride service with Harewood costs just £2pp and whilst it is obligatory, it offers our guests access to the grounds, gardens, café and facilities either before and/or after your tour.

Some of the other chargeable activities are also not included.

Please note: The Harewood Trust is a charity, so all contributions made go towards a range of projects, whether that be vital conservation and maintenance work to preserve the historic fabric of the house; work to develop and maintain the expansive grounds, gardens and facilities, or to support of their education and community programmes. Your support helps to ensure Harewood is here for the long-term enjoyment of all visitors. Registered Charity Number 517753

WHY DOSEN'T THE EMMERDALE VILLAGE TOUR COACH DEPART FROM HAREWOOD THROUGHOUT THE YEAR?

Due to a number of large events taking place at Harewood House, guest parking for the Emmerdale Village Tour is not always possible.

As a result, coaches on 9th & 10th November 2024 will depart from Weetwood Hall Hotel. Please be aware a 50p per person levy will be added to the cost of your tour ticket price. This small charge covers parking and use of the restrooms. Furthermore, to ensure you do not incur any additional parking charges on the day of your visit, you will be required to enter your vehicle registration at one of the 12 terminals situated around the hotel in order to receive a virtual permit.
