Explore London - CHISWICK HOUSE AND GARDENS

The glorious Chiswick House
VIEW DETAILS

Chiswick House is among the most glorious examples of 18th century British architecture and makes a fascinating day out in West London. The third Earl of Burlington, who designed this noble Roman-style Palladian villa, drew inspiration from his ‘grand tours’ of Italy.
The Gardens - birthplace of the English Landscape Movement - are open following a major restoration which has revealed the original vistas and repaired the statues and garden buildings. Visitors can also enjoy the cafe. For more information on the Gardens' restoration
