About Titsey Place Gardens

Dating back to the mid-sixteenth century, the home of Sir John Gresham and then the Leveson Gower family, Titsey Place is set in beautiful gardens and parkland with stunning views over the Surrey countryside. Titsey Place and its Gardens were first opened to the public by the Trustees of the Titsey Foundation in 1993. Titsey Place is striking in appearance from the outside, marked by the grand battlemented tower. The interior of the house features rooms such as the oak paneled sitting room, the Old Hall, and the gallery bedroom. Titsey is noted for its collection of family portraits and marvellous set of four Canaletto pictures. (Please note that the house is open to the public on Wednesdays and Saturdays only). The extensive gardens provide an idyllic setting. The Walled Garden has been reinstated as a working kitchen garden. The terraces provide spectacular views over the rose garden and lakes, stretching to the park and plantations beyond. The Woodland Walk is open every day of the year with two routes around the plantations. The shorter route is about 2.3 miles and the longer route negotiates steeper paths and is about 4 miles. There is no charge for the woodland walks and the walks are always open unless maintenance/forestry work is being conducted (check the website for the latest update).

Dogs allowed on lead in the car park and picnic area and throughout the woodland walks but not in the house or gardens, sorry.
