Hatchlands Park

Our house has now closed for the winter months so that we can complete vital conservation work. We look forward to welcoming you back in April 2019 when you can continue to explore the mansion.

Drop in and pick up a memory of your visit. We’ve got great stuff for your garden, music from the Cobbe Collection and traditional favourites like preserves and postcards. Find us in the cobbled courtyard right opposite the Kitchen Café.
