Chiswick House & Gardens

Enjoy a family day out surrounded by landscapes and glorious 18th-century architecture at Chiswick House and Gardens. Explore the State Rooms and find out the curious stories of the famous people who lived there. Take a walk in the beautiful gardens, and let the kids run around -  with 65 acres of gardens surrounding the house, you’ll have plenty of new places to discover!

Every parent knows that visiting historic places may not be the most exciting prospect for a child. That’s why, to keep the little ones entertained, you can turn your visit into a game. With the Chiswick House and Gardens kids’ trail your tots can learn about history and have fun at the same time. There’s a reward at the end too - complete the trail, collect a stamp and become a champion!

If you fancy a cuppa, there’s a playground by the cafe for the kids. Feel like doing something special? Check out the Chiswick House and Gardens events calendar - you may find your day out inspiration there.
