Amazing opportunity to visit a victorian housr totally furnished and enter into a family of artists and fine arts lovers, their life and story. Amazingly preserved as it was

A real time capsule, well-maintained and remarkably friendly volunteer staff to answer any questions. Highly recommended for anyone curious about late Victorian life and architecture.

Brilliant example of a genuine Victorian interior, completely untouched and a snapshot of 150 year old house.

A perfectly preserved Victorian artisan's family home. Every space is full of paintings, objects and furnishings. Its like stepping into an intense time capsule that is a little spooky but captures your attention fully. If you enjoyed a visit to Sir John Soane's house, Sambourne House is a must visit.

This is a wonderful Victorian artist's house. A real time capsule. Perhaps the custodians need to consider a little more carefully the placement and visibility of guide ropes designed to protect room settings but overall one gets a real sense of period.

Small it may be but my word is it an utter delight! The staff there are incredibly informed and helpful and will wax lyrical on the complete history of the house and its famous residents and wait till you see the rooms - a real step back in time and a true marvel to behold. This is £11 well spent and as I said before, it may be short but it's a sight you shan't forget in a hurry.

Nice piece of history tucked away on the side streets. Book together with Leighton House.
