Exquisite architechture and beautiful gardens have given Hylands House, near Chelmsford, Essex,
The 300 year old manor house is fully open to the public today, and you can visit spectacular rooms like the Drawing Room and the equally decadent Banqueting Room. The real jewel in its crown, though, is the surrounding 574 acres of landscaped woods, lakes and colourful gardens. Perfect for a leisurely stroll.
Hylands House will be closed up to the end of March 2015 and will re-open Sunday 5 and Monday 6 April. Opening times will be from 10am to 5pm with last admission at 4pm. Open Houses will continue until Sunday 27 and Monday 28 September 2015. This is the new House opening season.
