About

Inside the House, explore our new exhibition on the restoration of Hylands, enjoy storytelling sessions with Mike Dodsworth, and let little ones get creative with free crafts in the Terrace Room. Volunteer-led tours also run at 10.30am and 1pm.

Essex Foodies Market returns to Hylands with food, drink and craft stalls spread across the back lawn (weather permitting). From street food favourites to homemade bakes and artisan gifts, it's the perfect way to support local traders.

At The Stables, discover artist studios, live music in the courtyard, the Friends' bookshop and The Deli café.
