Newark Park is a National Trust property located near Wotton-under-Edge in Gloucestershire. The estate features a 16th-century Tudor hunting lodge set within a 725-acre countryside and woodland estate overlooking the Severn Valley.  

Visitors can freely explore the house, which includes various exhibitions. However, the property is a mixed architectural blend of Tudor and Georgian elements, and the overall house condition, room displays, and gardens feel a bit lackluster compared to other more picturesque National Trust locations. The grounds do feature some resident peacocks and cows, though.

Amenities on-site include a second-hand book shop and an outside tea room offering drinks, cakes, and sandwiches. Free car parking is available for National Trust members.  

Having visited numerous National Trust properties over the years, this stands out as one of the least interesting options encountered. Not one that I would recommend.
