£37.50 per person to include lunch

We are delighted to offer Society members a very special tour of Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham https://www.strawberryhillhouse.org.uk/

This extraordinary building, created by Horace Walpole in the 18^th century, is internationally famous as Britian’s finest example of Georgian Gothic revival architecture, and now displays an increasingly important collection of paintings and objects d’art.

Our tour will commence promptly at 11am and will last approximately 90 minutes. After our tour a buffet lunch, with tea, coffee and soft drinks will be served in a private area of the café which is housed in the great cloister and enjoys attractive views of the garden. Our visitors will then have ample time to explore the lovely garden and visit the gift shop until the house closes at 4pm.

Include your spouse/partner/guest when booking!

For those travelling by car please use sat nav TW1 4ST - there is some free parking adjacent to the house and on local roads, or pay and display car parks in Twickenham town centre. The garden area is open from 9am so we suggest you arrive early to ensure a parking space within the grounds. For public transport users there are four trains an hour from Waterloo to Strawberry Hill and regular trains and buses to Richmond and Twickenham. At the time of writing buses which serve Strawberry Hill are the 33 and the R68 but we advise you to check your individual travel arrangements nearer the time.
