About Mausoleum

The Mausoleum at Castle Howard is one of the great monuments of the Howardian Hills, a domed classical tomb that stands in the grounds of the Castle Howard estate. People visit it for the architecture first, for the setting second: it is a piece of grand landscape design in open country, and the surrounding parkland, with its avenues and long views, is part of the experience. It draws travellers who are already in Malton for the food town, and visitors staying in York who want a day out in the countryside without going far. The estate lies six miles west of Malton, which makes Malton the natural base for a visit, with the railway and the town's monthly food market on the second Saturday. The Food Lovers Festival over the late May bank holiday brings 30,000 people to a town of 5,000, so the local accommodation fills quickly around those dates.

Tips for staying near Mausoleum

  • Malton's monthly food market fills Market Place on the second Saturday, and the Food Lovers Festival over the late May bank holiday brings 30,000 people to a town of 5,000. Accommodation near the Mausoleum sells out early around those weekends, so plan well ahead.
  • If you want to see the racehorses, be out early. Strings of horses cross the roads around Langton Road in Norton-on-Derwent at about seven in the morning, which is worth building into a stay at Snowdrop Cottage or anywhere on that side of the bridge.
  • Most Talbot Yard food businesses open from around 9am and shut by 4pm, so fit your Mausoleum visit around a late breakfast or an early lunch rather than expecting to eat in the yard in the evening.
  • Trains on the York to Scarborough line run roughly hourly, about 25 minutes to York and 25 to Scarborough, so a car-free stay is realistic. Check the timetable before a day out, since the service is not turn-up-and-go.
