RACP app

Help us test our new smartphone app!

We’ve developed a new app to help visitors explore some of Rufford Abbey Country Park’s hidden history as they walk around the modern day country park.

We’re looking for iPhone and Android users to try out the new app and provide us with feedback so that we can iron out any glitches! And as a thank you, the first 30 people who send us their feedback will receive a voucher for a free hot drink and cake to use in the parks Coach House Café.

The app will need to be downloaded before arriving at the park. Find out more information or download the app now.
