West Green House, 18th century English country house and gardens in Hartley Wintney, England.

The property features six themed walled gardens with a lake, classical monuments, and architectural elements designed by Quinlan Terry throughout the grounds.

General Henry Hawley constructed West Green House around 1720, and the estate remained in the Hawley family through William Toovey Hawley until 1898.

The venue presents an annual opera season during July and August, with performances staged on an island within the lake and covered pavilions for spectators.

The gardens welcome visitors from March to December, including access to a tea room serving breakfast and lunch between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Following an IRA bomb attack in 1990, the National Trust repaired the structure and leased it to Marylyn Abbott, who transformed it into a garden destination.
