The Curse of the Bridgewaters

Sunday 27 September 2026 at 10:00

Explore Ashridge’s shadowy past. Gently wander through Capability Brown’s wooded landscape and discover monks, royalty, nobles, and a family haunted by a recurring struggle. Dan Parry is a former BBC History producer and a professional guide with London Walks.

This gentle, family-friendly walk, which does not go into the house or gardens, includes hillsides, gates, and muddy tracks. Meet at Ashridge House car park for a 10am start.

All walks are approximately 2 hours.

Tickets: £15
Seniors/students: £10
Kids 5-16:  £5  (little ones go free)
Payment by cash or card.

All proceeds go to Berkhamsted Castle Trust, supporting the Saving Castle Fields appeal.
