Amazing grounds and dog friendly areas. The Caffe is just the perfect spot for a relaxing brunch in the sunshine. My favourite park in Chiswick
The place is amazing. Except for the enormous number of dogs that run freely and even swim in the lake, a place that should be a quiet house for birds and wild little animals.
It’s a decent park. Sometimes it features activities like markets or Halloween lights festival. The park is pretty large, there are a lot of flower bushes and trees there. There is also a pond with ducks and other birds. One issue with the park is that during autumn/winter it gets very dirty and impossible to walk around without rubber boots or alternative village shoes
Beautiful grounds, lakes, gorgeous towering 200 year old trees. Unfortunately house closed that wasn't updated on the website. Be sure to pay the car park as very very vigilant circulation of traffic wardens and 2 cars ticketed already
Finally, I made it to this beautiful spot in West London. The house has a wonderful paladian front and sits in over 50 acres of land, which houses an extensive garden.
Situated in close to the house, is a cafe run by Collici which serves a selection of hot and cold dishes and beverages.

What an absolute delight to have this 60+ acre place on our doorstep in Chiswick, with great access and for free. Despite the impressive C17-18th, Grade I listed ‘House’ (a relatively small neo-palladian style villa), it isn’t what you go for (unless you’re a huge fan of the neo-palladian style). You go for the gardens, oh the gardens – glorious.
In the late C19th it was used as an ‘asylum’, and later even a fire station! But it’s hard to imagine through its grandeur and elaborate gardens and expansive water features.
Like the villa, the gardens are an attempt to create the gardens of ancient Rome, this can be seen in the statues, groves, Egyptian-esque nods, gateways, the water features and ‘garden buildings’ such as the ‘the Deer House’.
The great Cedar of Lebanon trees are my favourite, as is the impressive early C19th conservatory.

Wonderful place and I had a very nice time there.
It has the main house and allotments that are looked after by the community, and if you purchase the produce, then you help to support the community. Also, they give you a tea bag to pick some tea for yourself. The rest of the park and woods are free to access and children and dog friendly. Would definitely recommend this place. 🙂📸

Such a lovely place! The house was closed when I visited (open Thursday–Sunday, 11am–4pm), but wow, the gardens and greenery are just so pretty! There's a lake in the middle with plenty of wild fowls too. Could spend hours getting lost in the beauty of the place honestly.
