Strawberry Hill House is internationally renowned as Britain's finest building in the Georgian Gothic Revival style and is a must-see for history and architecture enthusiasts. The house and garden were built by Horace Walpole in the 18th century, when it afforded sweeping views over meadows and woodlands to the Thames River.

You can explore the sumptuous interior on a self-guided tour from around March to October while guided tours are offered on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Highlights of your tour will include the Hall and Staircase, the Great Parlour, the Gallery, and the Round Room. The gardens, which are currently being restored to their original glory, are open all year round and are a great location for a peaceful walk. Come by train or underground from London – there is very limited parking.
