From the remote Bothy Hut high on the moor, to the intimate, private Lake House accessible by cable boat.
From the family friendly picnic benches park side amongst the colourful plant life, to picnicking with the deer herd in the Deer Park. A picnic on the Swinton Estate is a truly unique experience, with picnics created by our team of chefs.
Exclusively for hotel residents. Let our team of chefs prepare a picnic for you to enjoy in the peace of the Deer Park, adjacent to Swinton Park. With stunning views, the Deer Park is home to a herd of Fallow deer, and the serpentine stretch of water that forms Home Lake. Lay down the picnic blanket and enjoy the wonderful surroundings.
Lake Island on Top Lake, a short walk from Coffin Pond and Quarry Gill in the Parkland, is a private retreat. Here you can hold an exclusive celebration or private event. Take a hand-drawn cable ferry across to your own private kingdom, complete with a miniature Georgian-style summerhouse.
Take a picnic to the Lake House to enjoy for an afternoon in the sun, or our team will set up the island ready for your arrival, whether it be afternoon tea laid out on the table, or a picnic waiting for you in a hamper.
The Bothy Hut is a cosy getaway nestled within a rock formation high on the Swinton Estate moorland. With sweeping views down into the valley below, it’s the perfect stop-off for a hiking or mountain bike cycling trip.
You can arrange for a picnic to be delivered to the Bothy Hut, where you can sit out and admire the views in the summer or get warm by the fire in winter months.
Available for residents only. We advise you pre-order your picnic ready for collection.
