Hatfield House

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Former Tudor royal house acquired by Robert Cecil, chief minister to both Elizabeth I and James I. Still home to the Cecil family, the present house, begun in 1608, is largely Jacobean and even Victorian in character, at least in the interior.
Garden: Originally planted by John Tradescant the Elder to a design by Robert Cecil. Huge double anemone, knot gardens, wilderness and scented gardens. Best in: times when the private East garden is open, as it contains many varieties of rare plants.
