Levens Hall deer park footpath

The deer park opposite Levens Hall was laid out three hundred years ago alongside the topiary gardens and is grazed by a herd of black fallow deer and rare-breed Bagot goats, with a designated footpath running through it beside the river Kent. Levens Hall states that dogs are welcome on a lead on that footpath, and that dogs other than assistance dogs are not permitted in the house, the gardens, Levens Kitchen or the gift shop. Dogs can sit with you in the courtyard areas outside the gift shop and Levens Kitchen, and in the Howard Room, where there is a log fire and water bowls outside. The park footpaths are open all year even when the house is shut.
