London: Eltham Palace and Gardens Ticket

Explore Eltham Palace,
where a medieval palace meets an Art Deco mansion

Eltham Palace is a medieval palace, once a royal residence of the Tudors, that Stephen and Virginia Courtauld turned into a glamorous home. With your ticket, you can enter any time during opening hours on your chosen date and freely explore the house and gardens.

See the Courtaulds' 1930s home

Pass through the circular entrance hall blending Art Deco and Swedish design and the panelled dining room with its geometric decoration to glimpse the couple's luxurious lifestyle. In the recreated walk-in wardrobe of Virginia, see period costumes, hats and accessories, and even try on vintage-style replicas. Just a few steps away is the medieval Great Hall, which you can look down on from the Minstrels' Gallery opposite.

Stroll through the rose garden and rock garden

Wander the flower beds and the rose garden in about 19 acres of gardens with traces of the medieval past. Pass the rock garden, where ponds and waterfalls cascade into the moat, cross the moat on an old bridge, and visit the wooden play area inspired by the Courtaulds' love of travel and the parkland designed by landscape gardener Capability Brown. You can also meet the horses that live here.
