An early 16th Century hearth-passage house – the oldest habitable dwelling in Bridgend with a history spanning over 500 years

We are very much looking forward to all of our Christmas events in St Johns House which are now all sold out. If you didn't manage to buy tickets then why not come to our next open day on Sunday December 14th, 11am to 3pm when the house is at its most magical!

On Saturday November 29th the house will be decorated for Christmas and we will have an exhibition of over 60 nativity scenes on display. We have some lovely gifts, many handmade locally, in our shop for Christmas. Our second Christmas open day is Sunday December 14th

Our exhibition from the end of November will be of nativity scenes from around the world, many from Czechia. There will be over 60 on display so come and see them as well as exploring Bridgend's Tudor house.
