Renishaw Hall & Gardens is an adored family home and immersive heritage experience located in North-East Derbyshire. Built by George Sitwell in 1625, the Renishaw estate has blossomed into a much-loved escape for loving families and history enthusiasts.
During the open season, we welcome you to explore the award-winning Italianate gardens, eat well at the Café at Renishaw and delve into our heritage at the Sitwell Museum. For our curious visitors, we offer an enlightening guided hall tour that captures the timeless charisma and lasting legacy of the Sitwell family.
Alexandra Sitwell and her family welcome you to their home with hopes that you will make your own everlasting memories at Renishaw Hall & Gardens.
Masterful Beauty
The Italianate gardens at Renishaw were visualised and built by Sir George Sitwell between 1886 and 1936. Inspired by what already existed and rooting for the future potential of the grounds, Sir Reresby and Lady Sitwell introduced an array of colour and texture between 1965 and 2009, emphasising the lines of the garden and ultimately transforming the overall look and feel.
Since taking over the estate in 2009, Alexandra has brought her vision to life by introducing exotic plantings and a stunning rose garden. She continues to work closely with our team of skilled and devoted gardeners, who maintain the exceptional beauty of Renishaw’s outdoor spaces.
With the blend of our stunning Italianate gardens, a scenic lake occupied by majestic wildlife and picturesque woodlands to explore, you are never short of opportunities to get lost in nature and beauty at Renishaw.
