    Entry to the gardens is free, but parking required pay by App only. The gardens are very very well kept, large and widely spread. Its a very popular place especially on the weekend so expect many visitors with their dogs sunbathing and picnicking. The lake was nice with ducks and dogs swimming. The cafe is quite big and served almost everything you like with seating inside and outside. Lots of seating around tge park. Nice walking and joghing paths. I fully recommend visiting this place.

    Pretty gardens with a lake, plus a cafe. Would comment on the actual house but it's closed until spring 2024. There's paid on-site parking at the official entrance.

    It is one of the most luxurious and opulent places ever built in the UK. The house is packed with an impressive amount of artwork and some very nicely decorated chambers. The gardens are also impressive and very well maintained. It's definitely worth paying a visit and enjoying a nice day in nature.

    A classic designed house with acres of beautiful gardens,trails + a working kitchen garden. A wonderful day out exploring this place, have a picnic or check out the cafe with seasonal produce from the kitchen garden.

    Charming historical gardens. It’s good place for an evening stroll or coffee with family. Not huge enough for a run unless you keep going in circles you won’t be able to get much exercise. It’s popular among dog walkers so if you don’t mind getting interrupted by random unleashed pet dogs 🐕 you will like it.

    It's so beautiful around this area. A wonderful place for both children and adults. I could spend all day looking at the scenery.

    Favorite spot to visit in Chiswick, most dog friendly park I’ve found in London that even offers a dog membership. Great events and the dog show is fantastic, also enjoy the markets, little shop, kitchen conservatory and membership offerings. Beautifully maintained and spectacular grounds. Selfishly I dislike the huge events as these tend to ruin the lawns but I understand they help find the gardens… also wish they’d add back more of the Saturday/Sunday market’s

    The dog friendly grounds are real pleasure to explore, (especially with energetic grandchildren), with many intersecting paths accessing water features, formal gardens, shady glades, meadow flowers grasses and architectural follies. There is a good "no dogs allowed" childrens play and activity area. Great coffee at the stylish cafe. (Fresh produce from the kitchen garden was on sale at the shop when we were there.)

    Lovely green space to walk the dog or take a stroll. Has a few little trails, a cafe, childrens play park and pond with a casade. Entrance to the gardens is free. I specifically went for the camillia festival and perhaps my expectations were too high but left rather underwhelmed. While the paper guide to the trail was very helpful and the camillias I did see were nice, there was only 1 bush/area of each variety. With some varieties only having a couple of open flowers. There was a camillia competition in the centre of the conservatory in which people had brought in a head of their home grown camillias which I thought is a good way to involve the community. The wings of the conservatory were barricaded off so we were unable to go further than the main circle which in all fairness was mentioned on the website. In all nice to have a look around Chiswick gardens but won't be rushing back to the festival.

    Attended for my friends wedding ceremony. Beautiful grounds. Loved the waterfall. The building was lovely with very regal decor. We spent time in various parts of the grounds throughout the day and into the evening. A really beautiful venue for events!

    Gorgeous historic house and a nice area by a little lake to have a picnic

  • 4/5 David G. 8 months ago on Google
    We spent about 2 hours here and visited whilst staying in premier inn nearby. The kids love this park with lots to do here. My children love birds and we saw plenty around the trees and water area. We got plenty of photos of the birds, trees and statues that are dotted around the area. After our time outside we made use of the cafe brought drinks and cookies and made use of the toilets (although toilets are free to use) there is a green house area but we didn't go in so can't really comment on this. We had a good couple of hours here

    Chisiwck’s best kept secret. Such a beautiful park, we spend so much time here. Herons, giant goldfish, ducks and turtles (we’ve seen a record 7 in one visit). Not only is it so very pretty but it has a cafe too, play park, cricket ground and tennis courts. It also hosts the largest dog show in September too as well as markets throughout the year. If you are in the area, it’s certainly worth a visit.

    We visited on a very rainy day when the main house was not open to the public so we were unable to view. The grounds although small when compared to other Grand House's were well maintained. There is a very large Greenhouse, a fairly large Topiary area and the grounds have a number of features such as an Ionic Temple and a lovely small Bridge. Certainly a great place to visit and stroll about the grounds.

    Great outdoor space. Beautiful camelias. A huge variety of plants mainly shrubs. Did not go inside. Unfortunately some of the camelias were roped off so couldn't see them properly. Good outdoor space for children. A small lake with ducks also. Enjoyed my visit
