    Superb art destination which is gloriously over the top, creative, moving, funny, scary and spiritual all at the same time. I could spend a whole day in this house and garden, admiring the mosaics, sculptures, dolls and images which cover the walls, floors and ceilings in a riot of colour and texture. Absolutely brilliant and completely unique.

    Open days take place once a month here. It’s a really quirky and moving place to visit. So much to see! Stephen Wright the artist is very generous with his time to talk you through the museum.

    It's like walking into the mind of the artist and seeing all of his thoughts all at once, it's overwhelming at times but always in an awesome way that keeps you constantly intrigued. The artist and his partner are very welcoming hosts who have as much interest in the visitors as the visitors have in the house. A unique experience, visually diverse and emotive

    We absolutely loved the experience. Stephen and his partner Michael made us feel welcomed from the start and showed us around, giving valuable insights into the art pieces in the house. The house itself has a lot of character and soul, and it definitely won't leave you indifferent. I'd definitely go there again! Thank you so much Stephen and Michael!

    We visited the House of Dreams roughly one week ago and have to say it was a really positive experience. You get a visual overload but in a nice way and there is so much to see although the museum is not huge. Stephen and his partner Michael are really friendly and take the time to welcome you and talk to you about the house and about their lives in general. It makes it a personal and very special visit into their universe. Highly Recommended.

    Very interesting, beautiful and wonderful. It was amazing to see Stephen’s life and the journey he’s been on portrayed through his mosaics and the art all over his house, his story is very sad, but the fact that he managed to take that sadness and make it into this gorgeous art is truly very inspirational. If you go, you should stay to watch the video, as it will explain everything and it will all start to make sense.

    A little slice off eccentric madness in sleepy suburbia. Worth every penny to experience this space

    It is a deeply touching experience. Somehow I left lighter and with a big grin on my face when I left. Jochen
