This venue had all of our guests in awe with the incredible views & picturesque landscapes & gardens. Even better, the staff was professional and easy to work with. Kristin originally walked us through the property and helped us throughout our entire wedding planning process. You could tell she is passionate about her job, the property, and the couples that get married there. It was an easy yes for us. Throughout the planning process the venue made renovations we weren’t even expecting that made the property even more magical. If you are looking for a beautiful outdoor/waterfront venue that offers professionalism, ease of planning, great communication and genuine interactions, Historic London Town is your venue. We seriously couldn’t have asked for a better day and feel so lucky that we chose London Town for our special day!

Beautiful location on the water with woodlands, gardens, and authentic structures, including an original brick home with a gorgeous view. Lots of hands-on items from the past and educated docents to provide a fascinating look into our history. Respectfully written accounts of the incredible courage and ingenuity of enslaved people are posted inside the reconstructed places they lived and worked. All local children will benefit from this knowledge and the ability to better imagine what life was like back then, and all schools should plan firld trips to this amazing place.

Historic London Towne & Gardens is a hidden gem!

We stumbled upon Historic London Town & Gardens online during COVID but we didn’t get a chance to visit there until today. It’s just south of Annapolis & well worth the time to visit. The Warren Brown house, which is the only remaining original structure on the property from the early 1700s, is well maintained & filled with history. The gardens are beautiful & include a huge variety of plants & trees (including a willow oak that is 200+ years old & its “offspring” that is a mere 180 years old).

Since we were the only guests on the tour of the gardens & buildings, we had the privilege of having the tour guides (Italia & Jen) all to ourselves so they took their time to explain everything that was even remotely interesting to us. Italia even said that our small group size meant she could explain some things that she couldn’t do with a larger group. Italia & Jen received top scores from all 3 of us! Well done, ladies!👏👏

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit & highly recommend it to anyone in the area who is interested in the history of Maryland. As an added bonus, you can’t beat the prices. Since the Wife & I are both “seasoned citizens” & AAA members, our tickets were only $9 each & our son’s was $11 so our total cost was only $29 for the 3 of us!

Beautiful fragrant gardens when in season. A nice tour of William Brown house. Lots of historical information. A museum that contains archeological finds on the property. No reason to not spend some time here on a Beautiful day. Pick up a free ticket for a family of 4 at the Anne arundel county library (reserve, there's a wait list at times, though my wait time was only a could of days)

My dogsitter cancelled on me and I had to take a giant 1 year old dog with me on my quick vacation to the Annapolis area. London Town was listed on Bring Fido. The visit went even better than I thought it would and this is truly one of the most dog friendly places I've ever been.

The grounds are beautiful but not fussy with nice walking paths (gravel) and lots of shade overhead from mature trees. The staff were helpful and friendly, the exhibits good and educational. There were several areas where benches were tucked away in the shade.

The only place dogs aren't allowed is the actual historic home. If you have a traveling companion, you could easily take turns waiting with the pet outside. I was solo, so we skipped the house. But still had lots to see/do. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you need a dog friendly activity around Annapolis.

What a gorgeous venue for a wedding! Historic London Town & Gardens is truly one of the prettiest event locations in the DMV. You can get married on a spacious lawn with a view of the South River behind you and then have your wedding portraits done in the lovely gardens surrounding the main building. As wedding photographers, we particularly liked the woodsy area down the hill from the open lawn area. The little "valley" at the bottom is an especially beautiful spot. It has the added bonus of being secluded, so you can get your portraits done in a relaxed and peaceful environment.
