Hylands House is open to the public to explore during our Open Estate Days. See Website for days and hours. The award-winning grade II* listed neo-classical mansion house has meticulously restored period rooms from both the Georgian and Victorian eras. The house is open to the public on the third Sunday of the month. Set in 574 acres of beautiful parkland, including ancient woodlands, ponds, lakes, ornate Victorian Pleasure Gardens and One World Garden which features many unique plant specimen. Available as an exclusive, dry hire wedding venue as well as for corporate and private events. The modern, Grand Pavilion accommodates both intimate and large wedding parties and provides the perfect sleek and stylish backdrop for your reception.
Lovely event. Lots of stalls. Games for the family. Seating and food, with live music...a bonus. More seating is needed. Remember to bring a crate/wagon to purchase the beautiful plants and other sundries.
Highly recommended place to visit. Beautiful house and beautiful grounds. Great for a day out. Free visit to the ground ,just pay for the parking, all day for PS5.
I attended the annual Hylands flower show for the first time and loved it! There was a brilliant selection of plants, craft and food stalls, and prices were very reasonable. It was busy but not overcrowded. I enjoyed it far more than Hampton court flower show and will definitely come back next year
Great place for a short walk, there are plenty of larger fields/green space which you can roam around which is great for dogs. The grounds for the house itself are somewhat small, but still a nice place to walk around. The small deli is really good, would recommend stopping there and grabbing a drink (and snack) before walking around the grounds!
Had a great time, my boy loved it. The lights were very artistic and well thought out, and the make a wish wall is a good idea. The animations in the cages are a nice touch,too. Would recommend to people to go see
Open day at the house was good, downstairs is open for anyone to view once a month with activities going on. On open days there are food stalls and a few other stalls, a DJ and live music. Gets very busy. PS5 parking for all day which is great especially as you won't get that anywhere else. The grounds are nice to have a walk too. Spring is springing now. Lovely place and one of my favourites.
