Reviews of National Trust - Sutton House and Breaker's Yard

Nice historic place, lovely staff. We really enjoyed our trip.
Originally known as 'Bryck Place', Sutton House was built in 1535 by Sir Ralph Sadler, Principal Secretary of State to Henry VIII, and is the oldest residential building in Hackney. It is a rare example of a red brick building from the Tudor period. Sutton House became home to a succession of merchants, sea captains, Huguenot silk-weavers, Victorian schoolmistresses and Edwardian clergy. The frontage was modified in the Georgian period, but the core remains an essentially Tudor building. Oak panelled rooms, including a rare 'linen fold' room, Tudor windows and carved fireplaces survive intact, and an exhibition tells the history of the house and its former occupants.

Serve yourself cafe, lots of really good affordable and secondhand books, quirky campers and tables to chill out on way through Hackney. Highly recommended for those seeking a bit of sanctuary

Great for kids! One of the highlights of our trip to London. It's an interactive hands-on museum with fancy dress for the kids in each room. A wonderful house and a new concept of museum with a punk recreation on the top floor to re-create the 80's squatters. Amazing garden with vans turned into playground attraction. We loved it!

Quite interesting. I took my time walking around and it took 45 mins. About half a dozen rooms. Small gift shop and self service cafe. I was looking for someplace to go this Bank Holiday without having to spend to much or go too far. Spent £7 on entry and £5.25 on tea and cake.

Wonderful Tudor house owned by the National Trust. Entry is 3.90 but you can pop into the cafe for free - they have an adorable 'honesty box' system for paying for the tea / cake. The courtyard is super peaceful, so would be a great place to read and chill - peek round the side of the building to discover a super cool kids playhouse too!

The house itself is really interesting and so unexpected to find such a historic house so far into London. However the exhibitions and set up are a bit trendy and feel quite jarring as a result. But worth a visit if you bear in mind that it'll all be a bit 'Hackney'.

A hidden treasure in busy Hackney. Such a relaxing place to visit with an interesting mix of heritage. A pretty garden and a nice bright cafe serving tea, cake and scones (plus savoury food too). And there's a second-hand book shop!
Note - currently only open Thursday-Sunday plus bank holidays.

Lovely Tudor house dating back to 1535, with 18th & early 20th Century additions, unexpected on a busy Hackney street! Peaceful courtyard cafe & new "Breaker's Yard" garden venue for events, featuring a stately ice-cream van... Overall a perfect location for a relaxing & informative hour or two. And at less than £5 entrance fee, great value! St John's churchyard around the corner also a surprising haven from the London bustle.
P. S.
A little sliver of Tudor history right in the heart of Hackney - Sutton House is the oldest building in the borough and is a very welcoming museum. It's free to enter, very popular with families, and the 17th century wood-panelling in some of the rooms has to be seen to be believed

Magical house.. like stepping back in time. Being the National Trust it's restored to perfection, it's hard to believe your in the middle of the city. I'm here for the Opera which happens in the large hall to the side of the house from time to time.
