A cosy and unpretentious family home with a fine collection of Arts & Crafts interiors.

Book Now

Standen was built in the 1890s by the architect Philip Webb for a prosperous London solicitor, James Beale, his wife Margaret and their seven children. The interior of the house retains many of the original wallpapers and textiles designed by Webb’s friend William Morris and has important contents by Morris’ Arts & Crafts Movement contemporaries including William De Morgan and W.A.S Benson, among others. After you’ve wandered through the House, relax and explore Mrs. Beale’s Arts & Crafts garden. Divided into many outdoor ‘rooms’, each with its own theme, colours, texture and detail, it’s inspired by the High Weald landscape. If you want to explore further there are many wonderful walks through 100 acres of the original Standen estate (leaflets available at reception). Before your afternoon visit, we journey to Royal Tunbridge Wells where you’ll have free time to obtain lunch.

 

Please Note: The ground floor of the house is fully accessible. There is no access to other floors, but photograph albums which illustrate the collections on the first floor are available. The garden, which is set on a hillside, is only partly accessible and there are some steps and steep slopes.
