Have you always wanted to visit The Inn at Little Washington but haven’t made it happen yet? Wait no longer — grab tickets now to the one-day-only Spring House & Garden Tour on May 28. The showcase offers an inside look at the 24-acre estate, from its luxurious 5-star hotel rooms to its Michelin-starred kitchen to its perfectly manicured grounds.

The three-hour event begins with lunch at Patty O’s Cafe & Bakery, the more casual sister restaurant to the Inn at Little Washington, followed by the house and garden tour. The tour will include some of the Inn’s accommodations, the kitchen, the gardens, and the new, English-style glass conservatory.
Once the tour concludes, there will be a dessert reception. An herb garden tour after dessert is optional.

Attendees will hear from architect Michael Franck and the property’s founder and proprietor, chef Patrick O’Connell, who will speak on the Inn’s renovation and future expansion. Guests will learn all about the property’s fascinating 46-year history, from its humble beginnings in a former car garage to its current splendor.
Tickets are $195 per person and include lunch, wine, the house and garden tour, and the dessert reception. There are two sessions available: 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. or 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. There are a limited number of tickets available online.
