The railway is situated in the grounds of Longleat House and Safari Park. Longleat House is the home of the 7th Marquess of Bath.
Longleat House was the first stately home to open its doors to the public. It was opened by the 6th Marquess of Bath in 1949.
In 1966 the worlds first safari park, outside of Africa, opened.
Other attractions have opened within the grounds since then, and now make up one of the best value family days out in the country.
