JMW Turner, one of England’s greatest painters, fulfilled a little-known aspect of his artistic ambition when he built Sandycombe Lodge near once-rural Twickenham, to his own designs, c. 1813. This small house, used by Turner and his ‘old dad’ as a retreat from the pressures of the London art world, reveals a fascinating side of Turner’s life and art.
Sandycombe has undergone an extensive conservation programme and is open to the public, Turner's House looks forward to welcoming visitors and sharing the many stories that have emerged.
