After being used as a glamorous royal residence from the 14th to the 16th century, Eltham Palace was transformed into an enchanting Art Deco home by millionaire couple Stephen and Virginia Courtauld in the 1930s. There is also an award-winning gardens that you can explore which are inspired by the couple’s world travels.

The Courtauld family left Eltham Palace for Scotland (and later for Zimbabwe) in 1944, giving the palace to the Royal Army Educational Corps. It is now owned by the Crown Estate and managed by English Heritage since 1995.

One of South London’s best hidden gems. Beautiful gardens with a moat, incredible art deco interior, and the Tudor Great Hall.
