An early 16th Century hearth-passage house – the oldest habitable dwelling in Bridgend with a history spanning over 500 years
Come and join us for a tour by candlelight in the atmospheric setting of St John’s House on December 3rd, 4th or 10th at 7pm. Our house will be decorated for the festive season and it is an opportunity to see it in a different light!
The cost of the tour is £6 per person with a maximum of 10 people on each evening. Light refreshments will be provided. Our shop will be open too for a chance to buy some lovely gifts for Christmas. Please remember to wear warm clothing as St John’s can be a little chilly in the winter! Also, please bear in mind the stairs in St John’s House are steep and narrow.
The nights are drawing in and the leaves changing colour but there’s still a warm welcome at our St John’s House open days. We are open on Sunday October 13th and Saturday October 26th from 11am to 3pm.
We will be decorating the house for Halloween ready for ‘Ghostly Tales’ with Debra John on October 25th (all tickets already sold) and our open day on October 26th. Come and visit the house and shop on our open days to buy some handcrafted Halloween decorations.
In November, we will remember those who lost their lives in wars with a poppy theme at the house on November 10th.
The house is open from 11am to 3pm on the last Saturday and the second Sunday of each month.
Our volunteers will give you the fascinating background of this historic building as they guide you around the house.
We look forward to seeing you!
