Kilnsey Park
The Kilnsey Estate dates back to the 1100s, when monks from Fountains Abbey farmed sheep here. The monks ran the Estate for 400 years until the land was taken by Henry VIII. Current owners the Roberts family have lived on the Estate since 1911. Today the 2,000 acre Estate is a hub for outdoors activities including mountain biking, fishing and horse riding. It is home to a rich array of wildlife including red squirrels and the UK's rarest orchid.
The Estate has its own café and award-winning smokehouse and generates all its own electricity from renewable sources. Every year the Estate is host to Kilnsey Show, which attracts up to 15,000 visitors.
Kilnsey Park Fishery
The fishery benefits from a spring-fed water supply which maintains the temperature and quality, allowing quality fishing year round. The fishery has hosted numerous fishing courses and is a Troutmasters Water. Two lakes are connected via a bridge at the northern end with the eastern lake extending to 0.85 acres, the western lake extending to 1.36 acres. In addition, the popular family pool attracts in excess of 7,000 visitors alone per year. The combined water area is 3.21 acres.
Nature Trail
The Kilnsey nature trail is a footpath around the site, comprising four animal enclosures with goats, pigs and guinea pigs, a paddock containing an alpaca and three sheep. The path has other points of interest including the site's green energy units (2 hydropower turbines and a heat pump), viewing points of the fish farm, an area of woodland and a freshwater spring.
