Hi there, yes you're more than welcome to bring picnics into the gardens and grounds at Plas Newydd. We have a few picnic benches located up near to the Old Dairy Cafe and plenty of open space on the grass too. All we ask is that you pop any rubbish in the bins afterwards :)

This year there is only one entry price which includes entry to both the gardens and the house.

You can spend all day in Plas Newydd if you do all the walks around the grounds as well as the house. There is also a nice café there. But half a day is enough to do the house and the main walks if you're in a rush. The Sea Zoo is close by. The station is also close, but not that much to see there, unless you want to visit Pringle to do some shopping.

Yes, dogs are more than welcome in the grounds on short leads. Everywhere except children's play areas, the house and terraced garden.

Hi, For confirmation I have just been on their website and it states: 1. Designated mobility parking in main car park. Drop-off point 2. Buggy shuttle service for visitors with reduced mobility (subject to availability) 3. Adapted toilet in the Old Dairy near car park 4. Building - steps to entrance, ramp available. Ground floor accessible to manual wheelchairs. 5.Three wheelchairs, booking essential Some parts of the extensive grounds are level especially alongside the Menai Straits but other parts are on a slope and it is uphill back to the car park and a fair walk - hence the buggy shuttle service. The Whistler Dining Room mural is on the ground floor so is accessible. I would not think they would allow motorised wheelchairs due to space restrictions and the damage they could cause. If you have any doubts about going why not give them a ring on 01248 714795 or email them ( I am not allowed to give web-links in this answer) - I am sure they will be only to happy to help answer any queries.

I have been on holiday hence the delay in replying. I am not a wheelchair user therefore I do not know the answer to your query. On checking the National Trust Handbook I see relevant symbols opposite "Access for all". I would advise phoning the contact number given: 01248 715272 to ask specific questions. There is a steep decline with steps down to the house and an almost impossible ascent! One can book transport down and up. A small donation is voluntary. The house is in a beautiful setting by the Menai Straits.
