Strawberry Hill

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Horace Walpole called Strawberry Hill his "little Gothic castle". A unique, extravagant house, Strawberry Hill set the stage for the Victorian Gothic Revival movement. Originally a small William and Mary house, it was transformed by Walpole over the period 1747 to1792 into a magical medieval extravaganza of turrets, arches, battlements, and antiquities. The furnishings are as unusual as the architecture, featuring Walpole's curious collections of art, furniture, and historical prints.
