A drab, tawdry interior with faux wooden paneling, ugly beige carpet ansd dull ornaments. A truely depressing place inside. Not much to see inside at all. After paying a whopping £9.40 you have the indignlty of having to cover your shoes inside with blue pasitc bags so not to mark the disgusting beige carpet. With regard to the hall I... More

A fascinating blend of 1930s Art Deco with a medieval great hall from the 1470s attached. Unique is really the only way to describe it. There are also 19 acres of gardens around the building so it often feels as if you're in the country and not in south London, though there are excellent views over the city from some... More

The attraction is under English Heritage contol, if you are not a member the price is a little steep at £9.30 (£9.60 from April 1) for adults. You are given a headset which provides plenty of interesting information... More

I used to come & peer through the railings at the main gate before the Army vacated & could never have imagined what was concealed behind. English Heritage have done a wonderful job of restoration & manage... More

Architecturally it is fascinating and a gem of it's time. The family history is fascinating and it has very well kept gardens, beautiful in both spring and summer, when I have been. More

It is wonderful to have such a great attraction in my local borough. The interior is a stunning example of the art deco period, In the spring and summer the gardens are lovely and a fairly easy walk More

This is an amazing place with great architecture and history. Who would have thought medieval and art deco went so well together? More
