Eleanor MilesJuly 16, 2013Amazing Art Deco interiors and lovely peaceful gardens - great for our picnic-but there was nothing in the rose garden. A very minor complaint after a wonderful visit. Look out for the lemur ladder!
Time Out LondonMarch 26, 2012This stunning art deco house was built in 1936. The 19-acre garden really comes into its own during summer, when the long border transforms into a riot of herbaceous perennials.

Art Deco features contrast with Tudor.
Trevor N CJuly 26, 2020Great place to visit. Lovely gardens. Free car park. Ideal for a picnic before going in.
Clea RomeoSeptember 11, 2016£15 each entry fee is a rip off. Kenwood house in Hampstead is just as nice and is free- LondonistApril 30, 2011London's best stately home. You get a mix of Medieval, Tudor and Art Deco. And look out for the giant fish in the moat.
- Louis VuittonMay 20, 2010This glamorous Art Deco London showpiece as built in 1936, next to the remains of a medieval royal palace, and surrounded by 19 acres of garden. A striking visit!
- Gary HeatherMay 21, 2018Amazing art deco blends with mediaeval grandeur. See how the other half lived!
John WhelanAugust 26, 2013Gorgeous 1930's Art Deco home bolted on to the remains of a Plantagenet / Tudor palace with stunning garden (and big fish in a moat kinda thingy)

"My dad and other people from 'Men in Sheds' built a new wooden bridge for Well Hall Plesaunce. A very pleasant spot with an interesting history. E. Nesbitt's home is no longer there."
