Due to storm damage we have had to close off some areas and pathways in the grounds at Osborne, including the beach and the Pavilion Beach Ice Cream Parlour. The ground floor of the house, the Terraces and Walled Garden, as well as the Terrace Restaurant, and Petty Officers’ Quarters Café will be open as normal.

See the 'Freedom' tree at Osborne this winter

Designed by Anna Hunnerkopf and and originally created to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Victoria and Albert’s birth, the tree is made of suspended ornate paper origami birds, each engraved with 'V&A' in silver. On loan to us from the city of Coburg (the birthplace of Prince Albert), it was first installed in the V&A museum in 2019. Come and see it in the Durbar Room from 1 Dec 2023 - 7 Jan 2024.
