London’s Stately Homes and Gardens
A great day out in London - Try something a Brit Different!
Discover London's Historic side - off the beaten path in the Capitol.
In London's western suburbs are a collection of the finest minor stately homes and gardens imaginable - yet not over-run by the tourist horde. We visit Inigo Jones' Chiswick House, the magnificent Osterley House, Syon House with its arboretum and Henry VIII connections and Ham House with its formal 17th century Dutch garden. You'll see tea magnate, Twining's house, a fascinating 'folly', the elegant suburb of Richmond (where many celebrities choose to live) and Royal Richmond Park. To make this a simply perfect day there's the prospect of lunch at an 18th century riverside pub or an afternoon cream tea at the original 'Maids of Honour'. An option also exists to include the botanical gardens at Kew.
This tour is not run as a scheduled departure; the tour will be just yourselves with your own driver/guide.
We would pick you up from your Central London hotel at 8.30 and return you there at approximately 6PM. Entrances to major attractions included in the price. Lunch is at your own expense (but we will find a great place for you to eat!)
