Life and lodging on Abbey Green: Elton House Open Days

Elton House is a much-loved building looked after by the Landmark Trust and enjoyed by guests for short breaks in Bath year round.

We are pleased to open Elton House, Saturday 19 - Sunday 20 September, coinciding with Heritage Open Days and the Jane Austen Festival.

Information about the history and restoration will be available, along with our knowledgeable staff.

Pre-booking via Eventbrite is preferred so we can provide you with updates on this event.

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to visit a Landmark for free as part of our Open Day programme, and as such we’re pleased to continue to offer free entry at all our Open Days in 2025.
The Landmark Trust is a building conservation charity that relies on donations to support its work. Over the past 60 years, public support has helped us rescue over 200 historic buildings and make them available for all to experience and enjoy. Your support by attending our events, booking a workshop, and making a donation allows us to continue to save buildings at risk and continue to maintain those already in our care. Your donation could help train the craftspeople needed to restore a future Landmark, offer opportunities for young people to experience history first-hand, or provide a charity with free Landmark stay for their service users through our 50 for Free scheme.

Donations can be made when you book your Eventbrite ticket, at the event via contactless donation points, or after your visit via our website under Support.
