Kelmscott Manor
Kelmscott Manor was the inspirational country home of William Morris; poet, designer, craftsman, socialist and founding father of the Arts and Crafts movement.
An enchanting place within walking distance of the Thames Path, during open seasons Kelmscott Manor offers a lot to visitors both young and old.
Described as 'a heaven on earth', Morris loved the house as a work of true craftsmanship, totally unspoilt and unaltered, and in harmony with the village and the surrounding countryside.
