- Rachel BI visited with my partner and was greeted by two lovely ladies. Carol guided us around the house and her knowledge was incredible. She knew so much and delivered the information in an interesting way. The house felt very old and still inkeeping with Lawrence times. The lady gardening too very devoted and their care and attention shows. Absolutely recommend a visit. Such a gem in Eastwood.

- Joanne MTook my mum for a visit on June 6th for her birthday as she loves looking at houses like this as reminds her of her childhood. Lovely place to visit the tour guide was very lovely and informative. The gardens are kept immaculate by a lady gardener who we also met that day. Well done ladies keep up the good work you do.
