Why it's Wildland

7.2

A well-preserved 17th-century house whose historic rooms and garden make the visit as much about interiors and collections as the formal setting.

Ham House stands out for its historic house and garden together: the visit combines period rooms and collections with a level garden, and the National Trust recommends allowing around three hours for groups.
