Hylands Estate covers 574 acres and has an 18th-century history. It began as a humble farmhouse in 1730 but Sir John Comyns transformed it into a neoclassical villa in the early 19th century. Hylands House, known as the mansion, boasts stunning Georgian architecture with grand columns and a stately façade.
Over the years, Hylands House underwent several transformations. It served as a military hospital during World War I and later functioned as a school. In the 1960s, the local council acquired the estate and extensively restored it to its former glory.
Today, it stands as an iconic representation of the Georgian era. The estate, as a whole, functions as a vibrant cultural and recreational hub.
