About

Visit our website to find out more about this month's event!

Hylands House opens its doors to reveal the secrets behind its history with a monthly exhibition in The Library.

The Stables, home to a vibrant community of artists, designers, and makers, will be open for exploring and live music will be on throughout the day in the courtyard. Discover unique handmade pieces available to purchase, or get creative yourself and book one of our experiences or workshops.

Mike Dodsworth joins us with his popular storytelling sessions. Explore Hylands House with the guidance of one of our volunteer tour guides at 10am.

Live music will be playing at The Stables throughout the day, thanks to Hot Box Live. 

Be sure to come hungry, as Urban Food Fest will be joining us with delicious street food available just outside the house. There will also be handmade gifts and freshly baked goods for sale from local traders.

Hawthorn Heavy Horses will be providing estate carriage tours throughout the day. For just £4 per person, you can enjoy a short ride around Hylands.

While you're visiting the Estate, check out our new History & Gardens Tour.
