Marble Hill was the house of Henrietta Howard, a woman with who married an abusive man, The Duke of Suffolk and was mistress of the King George II. She finally retired to this house built for her and happily married again. House was built in Palladian architecture. Henrietta was very social and she used to enjoy the company of her neighbours including Alexander Pope, John Gay and Horace Walpole. The house is surrounded by an amazing green space. Visit to the house is free. There is an excellent team of volunteers around the house to tell you a lot of amazing stories.
It's currently free because of the refurbishment by English Heritage. Worth a visit. The staff in the house are friendly helpfull and funny. There is a small fee for parking. There is also a cafe nearby.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
The newly restored interior is fabulous and the guides' interpretation of the rooms was excellent. The detective work to enable the return of artworks to the house is remarkable. The thought and imagination which has gone into restoring the building is outstanding.
Lovely grounds to wander in, down to the river. Great house to look round, with volunteers to tell you all about its history. Nice little coffee shop too.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

My Most Favourite Park in London - Open early in the mornings & shuts at dusk,check their website or the gateways to the park for closing times - Has tennis courts,football pitches & a cricket pitch too - Fantastic beautiful grounds with lovely trees & awesome wildlife & a fabulous white house at the centre of the park - You can enjoy the park & then enter the Thames Riversidepicture includedpathway from exits on the south side as well!!!
A lovely gem of a place, that has been thoughtfully restored to the period. Staff/guides were a mine of interesting information Nice café adjacent to the main building Pleasant gardens, nice view of the river. Well worth a visit, entry is free but book online for some reason, car park £3.50 for 3 hours.
Such a beautiful stately home, which has been lovingly restored and preserved for the public to visit! The care and effort made is so visible and the friendly staff and volunteers do such a great job in teaching about the history of this home and the interesting story of Henrietta Howard.
Beautifully renovated.excellent value, thanks to National Lottery free entry! Very pleasant and highly informative volunteer guides .Nice gift shop too All in all well worth the visit.
