Driving pin is English Heritage Car Park - Witley Court and Gardens, matched to the visitor parking guidance at https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/witley-court-and-gardens/plan-your-visit/directions/. Main attraction listing identity is stored separately. Walk from this arrival point to admissions.
Witley Court is the roofless shell of a Victorian country house whose lavish entertaining came to an end before a devastating fire in 1937. Walk around the surviving architecture and use the displays and audio tour to imagine its furnished rooms and busy household. Formal gardens stretch out beyond the mansion, centred on the Perseus and Andromeda fountain, while woodland paths and a wilderness play area extend the visit for families. Reviewers particularly enjoy the fountain and recommend checking its operating times when arriving. Allow for the walk from the visitor centre to the house, and use the toilets there before setting out because there are none at the court itself. Dogs must remain on leads. Accessible paths reach the grounds and exterior, but wheelchair access does not extend inside the ruined house. An independently operated tearoom stands nearby.
Later dates are in the calendar.
Off-peak days are £1.80 cheaper for an adult.
