Mander, Mawson & Morris a suburban paradise. A late Victorian manor house, built in the ¿Old English¿ style by local industrialist Theodore Mander, Wightwick Manor is perhaps the best surviving example of a home furnished under the influence of the Arts & Crafts movement. The rich interiors feature many original wallpapers, fabrics and furnishings by William Morris, artwork by Rossetti and Burne-Jones, glass by Charles Kempe and ceramics by William de Morgan. The house sits in seven hectares (seventeen acres) of attractive Arts & Crafts gardens, designed by Thomas Mawson, which are Grade II listed in their own right
- Admire outstanding Arts & Crafts interiors and Pre-Raphaelite art.
- Impressive Arts & Crafts garden for all seasons.
- Recently reinstated kitchen garden and new Caribbean herb garden.
Guided tours of the house run every open day. Special, themed 20-minute Taster Tours run every day between 11 and 12:30. Extensive and varied calendar of events. Dogs on leads allowed in garden
