Set within 3 acres of woodland, Gelston Manor is known as an “outdoor nursery”, where children are encouraged to explore nature every day. From mud kitchens and sensory gardens to bug hotels and outdoor storytelling, learning comes to life in the natural world.

Both indoor and outdoor environments are carefully designed to support curiosity and independence. Bright, neutral indoor rooms and free-flow access allow children to explore based on their interests and developmental stage.

The dedicated team creates a safe, supportive environment where children build confidence, develop friendships, and grow at their own pace through play-based learning.

At Gelston Manor, we are passionate about creating a warm, nurturing environment where every child feels safe,valued and inspired to learn. Our beautiful woodland setting provides endless opportunities for exploration, helping children build confidence, independence and a love of the outdoors.
We believe every child is unique, andour dedicated team works closely with each family to support children’sindividual journeys. Through meaningful play experiences, strong relationshipsand a focus on wellbeing, we aim to give every child the very best start inlife.

Gelston Manor is proud to be part of its local community. Children benefit from real‑world experiences beyond the nursery through visitors and shared events that help them understand the world around them. By taking part in seasonal celebrations, special days and community‑inspired activities, children develop confidence, curiosity and a strong sense of belonging, while families feel connected and included in nursery life.
