Reviews for Rippon Lea Estate
Harshitha Shankar
A beautiful and peaceful spot for a picnic! The low crowds make it worth paying for a memorial picnic if you plan to spend more than a couple of hours here. Please note that a separate ticket is required to visit the mansion, in addition to the entry fee. There’s a guided tour available approximately every hour. The estate is well-maintained, with several charming bridges crossing the lake, offering unique views. If you're up for a little adventure, there’s also a viewpoint accessible via a short climb.

The mansion is very beautiful and well preserved. The tour was just a small group of 10-15 people so it’s not overcrowded. The tour guide who is a local is very informative of the estate and its surroundings’ history. You can also explore the garden and grounds after the tour. The garden tour was $15pp and for an additional $10pp, you get to have a guided tour inside the mansion as well.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the beautiful garden and mansion; the atmosphere was incredibly relaxing and peaceful. Several families were also enjoying picnics. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and we appreciated the informative guided tour led by Jan, who answered all our group questions thoughtfully.

The tour of the house was great. Small group of 11. The guide was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We got to see most of the rooms in the house. Beautiful place, very well preserved. I wish I had more times to walk around the grounds as they are expansive and pretty.
