Join us on this rare opportunity for a guided tour of Rousham House historic interiors and landscape gardens by William Kent.
The 17th century historic Rousham House was remodelled by William Kent in 1738 and still retains much of his characteristic decoration. Designed for General Dormer the Painted Parlour is Kent's exquisite creation.
Rousham Park is one of England's most important gardens and represents the first phase of English landscape design by William Kent. Many of the features that delighted its 18th century visitors remain today for visitors to enjoy.
Views of Rousham House & Park
Monty Don included Rousham in his '80 Gardens of the World' TV series, saying 'Kent is the great genius of 18th-century garden design and Rousham is his masterpiece'.
