The Homewood

The Homewood is on the west side of the A307 Portsmouth Road.

From London exit the A3 at  Esher and Sandown Park. Pass Sandown Park on your right and drive straight through the middle of Esher on the A307, following signs for Claremont Landscape Garden and Cobham. Passing Claremont on your left (which is in a dip), the road then rises quite steeply. As you come over the brow, you will pass the turning to Blackhills on your left, and the large Esher Common car park on your right. Indicate right at this point. The entrance to The Homewood is at the bottom of the hill opposite the white railings of the horse crossing. There is a discreet red-brick entrance. Fork right inside the drive and continue up to the house, where NT volunteers will meet you. If you cross over the A3, you have gone too far and will need to retrace your route.

From M25, take the London-bound A3 and come off almost immediately following signs to Cobham and Esher. As you come into Cobham, follow the A307 to Esher. Continue for over a mile crossing over the A3. On your right, you will pass Upper Court (currently hidden behind black hoardings). Indicate left at this point. The entrance to The Homewood is on the left, just after the belt of horse chestnut trees. There is a discreet red-brick entrance. Fork right inside the drive and continue up to the house, where NT volunteers will meet you. If you get as far as Claremont Landscape Garden, you have gone too far and will need to retrace your route. 

Parking: Please do not arrive more than 10 minutes before your allocated arrival time. On arrival you will be met by a volunteer who will direct you where to park.
