What visitors say

Loretta Jannetta-Porter

The staff were lovely, as soon as we entered a sweet lady gave us the full rundown of the museum, chapel and botanical garden. The museum area of the palace is relatively small but still incredibly interesting. This seems like a wonderful place to bring children as there were plenty of interactive exibits and there seemed to be multiple events going on throughout the summer such as a pinochio puppet show. However, the gardens were by far the highlight of Fulham palace with a quaint greenhouse that was partly accessible to the public. Definitely somewhere I'd recommend to others.

Fantastic wedding venue, and the courtyard came alive with a Welsh male voice choir! On other visits the formal gardens and relaxed cafe give a lovely tranquil day out.

I visited Fulham Palace on a Sunday afternoon, and it was such a wonderful experience! The palace itself is stunning, with beautifully landscaped gardens and a tranquil atmosphere that feels like an escape from the hustle and bustle of London. What made it even better is that entry is free, which is always a pleasant surprise. The grounds are perfect for a peaceful walk, and I spent quite a bit of time wandering around the Botanic Garden – the variety of plants and flowers is impressive. Inside the palace, there’s a rich history to explore, with exhibitions that tell the story of the place as a residence for the Bishops of London for over 1,300 years. The cafe is a lovely spot to relax after a walk, with a nice selection of coffee and snacks. The staff were incredibly friendly, and it just added to the overall charm of the place. If you’re in the area or looking for a quiet, historical gem in London, I highly recommend visiting Fulham Palace. It's a peaceful retreat, and with free entry, it’s a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
