Spencer House in London
Tucked away in the heart of St. James’s, Spencer House is one of London’s finest surviving 18th-century aristocratic mansions — a private palace that exudes grandeur, history, and elegance. Commissioned in 1756 by the first Earl Spencer (ancestor of Princess Diana) and designed by James “Athenian” Stuart, it stands as a masterpiece of Neoclassical architecture.
While it remains the London base of the Spencer family, this extraordinary property opens its doors to visitors, offering a rare opportunity to step inside a world of aristocratic refinement.
Practical Information & Opening Dates
Spencer House is closed for tours throughout August for essential conservation work and will reopen in September.
Public tours typically run on Sundays, but the house can also be accessed privately, with or without a guide, for those seeking a more tailored experience.
