Seeing tiny ducklings is a joy. With their soft down & curious sense of adventure, they can be seen exploring Painshill under the watchful gaze of their mother🦆

Whether taking their first swim or napping amongst the daises, these little ones remind us to slow down and enjoy life’s simple moments🐥

These images show The Ruined Abbey as it was back in 1982 and the Ruined Abbey as it stands today.

It was designed to be a ruin to add an air of history and to remind the visitor of the past.

We love to watch the landscape change over the first few months of each year. From Jan, we enjoyed carpets of snowdrops, then along came beautiful daffodils🌱

This morning, it is the turn of the spring snowflakes to take centre stage🤍

The Turkish Tent at Painshill offers stunning views, changing with the seasons.

The Painshill Park Trust charity re-created the tent in the 90s.

The structure, originally built from brick, wood, canvas and papier mache, is now brick, wood and fibre glass to ensure it continues to survive.
