- Louise LLondon, United Kingdom37 contributionsWonderfulWonderful place to spend a couple of hours or so. Really lovely setting, beautiful trees, plants, small rivers and ponds. Loads of sculptures to look at from the amusing to creative and engaging. We would highly recommend a visit.Hello Louise, Thank you for leaving this great review. We put a lot of effort into the upkeep of our grounds as well as the eclectic array of sculptures we display, so it's great to hear your appreciation! We look forward to your next visit!Written 20 April 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited January 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 3 January 2023
- Helen F84 contributionsHidden gemOMG - this place is amazing. We ran out of energy to see it all, so will be back. I just wish you paid one entry fee which lasted a year, as it'll be quite expensive going back again.Hi Helen, Thank you so much for your 5 star review! We can't wait to see you again so that you can enjoy the rest of the park! As we take all suggestions and feedback seriously, your comment regarding seasonal tickets has been passed on to management.Written 20 April 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited February 2023Travelled with familyWritten 17 February 2023
- Kate MCanterbury, United Kingdom2 contributionsBest £15 spent in a long timeThe best £15 I've spent in a long time. For me, 3 hours was not enough time to appreciate more than 3000 sculptures here. Despite being a cold (3C) and drizzly day in March this hidden gem took my breath away. I was so focussed on each piece that when the paths opened up I often gasped in amazement and wonder at the views and the pop of colour. Yes there are some macabre pieces, and yes not everything was to my liking but overall the skill and imagination involved in creating these pieces is mind-blowing. Personally I liked the quirky skeletons. After an hour I realised I was less than 1/4 of the way round and it closed at 5pm. Really wish I'd got there earlier. There was so much to look at and read. Absolutely fascinating - loved it and will definitely return for a whole day next time. Also for context I was there on a quiet, wet and cold weekday so parking was not an issue. The paths were well maintained and signposted for someone with no mobility issues.Visited March 2023Travelled soloWritten 7 March 2023
- Sally AnnChichester, United Kingdom114 contributionsDo go - Fab place. Lots of walking incl up and down steps - wear trainers or walking boots.Excellent place. This was our first visit and we loved it. Lots of things to look at. Our only criticism was that there were TOO many sculptures so almost didn't know where to look first! Lots of walking including up and down steps - wear trainers or walking boots. No cafe on site but pub opposite.Visited March 2023Written 15 March 2023
- Lizzie RNorthamptonshire, United Kingdom14 contributionsHighly recommend a visitThe whole experience was amazing. This hidden gem of a place was recommended to us. We’re so pleased to have been now & will be recommending to all! We spent approximately two & a half hours following the free laminated map provided which was well worth it otherwise you may not see everything. It was one fantastic sculpture after other, some completely breathtaking! Please note to wear walking boots or trainers & expect to be walking up & down uneven paths. We’d love to return (with a proper camera next time!) Thank you for sharing these beautiful unique special sculptures.Visited March 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 18 March 2023
- Jules NHue, Vietnam68 contributionsA great day out for everyoneTook my dad here for the first time and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Beautiful sculptures everywhere you look plus quiet little places (with robins to boot) to stop for a picnic or a cuppa. It was a great way to while away 2 to 3 hours and then you can enjoy lunch or dinner at the pub opposite.Visited March 2023Written 9 April 2023
- MaisbLondon, United Kingdom1 contributionA beautiful place, everyone would enjoy!A truly magical place. I visited for the second time recently, just as the spring flowers started to bloom, and it was just as special as the first time. It took over 2 hours to complete one of the trails through the park which had many beautiful sculptures and places to sit and enjoy. Next time I’ll bring a picnic and stay for longer as there’s so much I haven’t yet seen. A real gem of the Surrey Hills.Visited May 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 19 May 2023
- TonyP5317 contributionsA real hidden treasure and well worth a visitWhat an amazing place. Meander through the laid out paths to see over 800 pieces of sculpture to suit all tastes. The walk is split into 3 sections and vary in terms of differ cults of terrain amounting to around 3 miles altogether. The place is very difficult to find though as it’s not signposted due to not having enough parking they cannot have signage but they have an arrangement with the pub opposite to use their car park. Well worth a visit a real hidden treasure.Visited June 2023Travelled with familyWritten 8 June 2023
- Lauren J1 contributionWell worth a visit!I am not into art or going to art galleries but I was blown away by the sculpture park! There are over 800 sculptures along 4 different walks in the forest. There is something for everyone to enjoy and we had an amazing time! All in all it takes around 2.5 hours to do all 4 walks.Visited July 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 14 July 2023
- higs2015Brighton, United Kingdom6 contributionsAmazing placeFrom the moment you arrive in this magical place you are transported into another world. The beautiful landscaped gardens are a delight in themselves, but with over 600 sculptures to discover - of endless variety,, some bold and huge, others part hidden or hanging from the majestic trees - your observational skills will be working overtime! An enchanting place that you could easily spend all day in, and still not spot everything. There are numerous places to sit and soak up the very special atmosphere on one of the creatively carved tree-root chairs or benches. Trails are clearly marked and lead you on winding paths through the wonderful wooded terrain, up and down intriguing steps at times & over pretty little wooden bridges, but there are plenty of accessible paths also. Don't miss the fantastic permanent exhibition of Shona ware from Zimbabwe where the friendly Biggie will be very happy to chat with you and explain their incredible skills. Can't wait to visit again!Visited July 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 19 July 2023

I have never seen so much sculpture in one place, it is absolutely amazing! The route through the park is thoughtfully laid out and there are hundreds of different exhibits. Some are a bit wacky whilst others are thought provoking and beautiful.
It is one of the best “art based” exhibits we have experienced and well worth a visit.

Went during the half term with my daughter and my Dad. The pics are fantastic but experiencing it in real life is just magical. Such beautiful settings. Would definitely recommend it.

A magical place! We travelled to Surrey solely to visit the Sculpture Park -arrived just before the onslaught of Storm Babet but the rain took nothing away from our visit, so much to see in beautiful surroundings. I took a million photos! We are already planning another visit in the Spring. A very 'feel good', calm beautiful place that everyone should visit at least once! Thank you

I had been before, probably 20 years ago. It's a beautiful setting, but to be honest it felt like a bit of overload. I think it was better before, when there were less sculptures, Now there are so many that after an hour or so you just get overwhelmed, and many are recognisable as from the same artist. Not saying it's not worth a visit, it is, and there are a few really stunning sculptures, but I was happier the first time!

Amazing place , so much to see ! Take a picnic and drinks loads of places to stop no cafe but there is a a loo !
There is limited road parking but a pub opposite will accommodate you if your buying a lunch ... you can come out of sculpture park to go in !
We spent around 5 hours in the park.
Very dog friendly and had paths for wheelchair users .

Beautiful sculptures in a magical setting. Only criticisms are the three routes to walk are so badly signposted, you end up having to just find your own way around. The entrants prices have gone up significantly (33%) since we last visited. The staff aren’t terribly friendly or helpful…at least not on the day of our visit.

Beautiful well kept venue to visit, but do look up their event calendar - many other things are shown there eg Arts and Crafts Fair making the day even more interesting.

A hidden gem. We really didn't know what to expect but this place blew us away. My friend's daughter is 5 and found it very exciting seeing what was hidden around each corner. Over 700 sculptures to see there was something for everyone. A very enjoyable 4 hours. Plenty of parking in the pub car park. Make sure you take your lunch as no food/drink items sold on site. Toilets on site too. Will definitely go back in the future.
