A hundred years ago, Witley Court was one of England’s great country houses, hosting many extravagant parties. Today it is a spectacular ruin, the result of a disastrous fire in 1937. Restoration work to the West Wing has made several new rooms accessible to the public.
The vast and rambling remains of the palatial 19th-century mansion are surrounded by magnificent landscaped gardens. Attached to Witley Court is Great Witley Church, which has an amazing Italianate Baroque interior (not managed by English Heritage). The church has a tearoom just 100 metres away serving morning coffee, light lunches and afternoon tea.
