Some of the delights to be sampled include the Great Hall, the Great Staircase, the upstairs Drawing Room, Long Gallery and Green closet and the Marble Dining Room. The walls are hung with an extensive collection of family portraits.
Ham House is home to an atmospheric 17th century walled garden on the banks of the River Thames as it winds its way through Richmond. After coffee on arrival, you will be free to visit the House (no conducted tours, but there is an excellent Guidebook). Lunch in the Orangery café is served from 12 midday. At 2pm there will be a guided tour of the gardens (£5 extra).
Nearby attractions to which you can walk include The Palm Centre, immediately adjacent, the Richmond Thames Tow Path and Petersham Nurseries, about 15 minutes’ walk, a ‘Tranquil oasis and seed bed of inspiration’.
