Houses and buildings in Hampshire

The house at The Vyne 

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫: With both floors of the house still open daily from 11am to 3pm (subject to volunteer availability), you can savour the sight of fascinating treasures before the annual autumn deep clean begins and the festive decorations go up. The Sandys and Chute families made The Vyne their home for over 500 years. They accumulated beautiful and important objects and made significant changes to the house during their lives, which you will see as you explore the opulent state rooms and humble servants’ quarters. Marking 250 years since the birth of Jane Austen, you can enjoy exhibition 'Regency Revisited' and biweekly 'Jane Austen House Tours' for an additional £5 per person. On 26 September, we're hosting an Austen-inspired solo theatre performance. Read on for more information.
