Heritage Open Days at Chastleton

19 September, 1-5pm: enjoy free entry to the house and gardens at Chastleton for Heritage Open Days.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

Chastleton is a rare gem of a Jacobean house, barely changed for over 400 years. Behind its Cotswold stone exterior is an atmospheric time capsule. It's home to nationally significant textiles, rare Jacobite glass, and family portraits. As you explore, you'll find out more about the bohemian family who made Chastleton their home from the 1950s.

Outside, you can stroll through an intimate series of spaces including the Best Garden, Kitchen Garden, Wilderness Walk and croquet lawns where the rules of the game were codified. Within high protective walls, our gardens exude a sense of peace and relaxation.

You can enjoy free entry to Chastleton for Heritage Open Days from on Saturday 19th September, 1-5pm. Please note that last entry to the house is at 4pm to allow sufficient time to enjoy your visit.
