If you like historic buildings and Art Deco furniture and style, then you will not find anywhere better in London.
Many of the Kings of England lived here, including Henry VIII. It was lovingly redeveloped in the 1930s by Stephen Courtauld. He restored the palace and added a new Art Deco house, decorated and furnished in the fashion of the time.
Currently it is in the care of by English Heritage. The circular entrance room is stunning and the art deco decoration and appliances are exquisite. The gardens are beautiful and have lovely views of the house and over London.
This is a fantastic day out within half an hour from central London.
The photos are of the house from the garden and a marble bath in on of the en suite bathrooms.

Glorious. Art Deco at it’s finest.
Yes, the whole house is lovely.
Beautiful house. I would love to see more photos from your visit 🙂
Somewhere I’ve thought of going to, and now I know I should. Thanks
Its free if you have an English Heritage membership. Barclays account holders apparently get entry too but you have to apply for the rewards scheme first, I think.
Neither apply to me at the moment, but useful information to know all the same. Thanks
