Please note, that outside of special events, Cambo House mainly operates as a private hire venue for weddings and other events. This means that although we encourage visitors to explore the gardens, woodlands and wider estate at all times, we respectfully ask visitors to be considerate of the privacy of wedding couples and their guests when a wedding party is in progress by avoiding the immediate area around the House.
Well behaved dogs are very welcome at Cambo, including to the cafe and visitor centre. However please keep them on a lead, and make sure that you pick up after them.
