Fairly newly opened and close to Temple tube station, this museum is the beautifully restored former London home of the Astors. The interior decor is stunning. There was an excellent William Morris exhibition on when I was there and I would check with the venue to see what events are on. Free entrance and a good cafe. It's only a... More

I'm really glad I found this house. It was the home of Waldorf Astor and the interior is truly amazing! Wood panelling, tapestries and one of the most amazing fireplaces I've ever seen. Apparently it's only open at the moment because they are having a William Morris exhibition and there aren't any plans to keep it open beyond the end... More

Beautiful house, charming service, sweetest in-museum cafe for a very healthy lunch, hosting an exceptional exhibition of William Morris art and artefacts. Whether you are a student of art, a lover of... More

Two Temple Place is the former elegant home of Lord Astor, a terrific Craftsman style home, and as such, it is a terrific venue for the current William Morris show, which comes from a regional museum that is currently being renovated. The museum has a modest shop and cafe. This is well worth a visit and pairs nicely with a... More

Two Temple Place rates as one of the most distinctive houses that I have had the good fortune to experience. The Bulldog Trust have lovingly restored the property and it is worth a visit to stand and comprehend the considered architecture and interiors. Astor was Minister to Italy for the USA and he had a fine hall floor and fireplace... More
