Gilbert White's House

Discover the beautifully restored house and gardens of natural history pioneer Gilbert White. Regarded as the 'Father of Ecology', White's book The Natural History of Selborne is the fourth most published book in the English language.

Located in Selborne, a stunning corner of the South Downs National Park, Gilbert Whites 17th century home is now a museum open to visitors, housing the original manuscript of The Natural History of Selborne and collections belonging to Lawrence Oates (who was part of the fateful Terra Nova expedition to the South Pole).

The extensive 18th century gardens (25 acres) have also been restored to their former glory for visitors to explore, featuring a cottage, herb and kitchen garden, as well as sweeping lawns and a wildflower meadow.

Visitors can enjoy brunch, lunch and afternoon tea at White's Café as well as purchase gifts and produce at the museum shop.
