Marketing independent historic houses

Invitation to View is a great opportunity for private houses and gardens wanting to open to the public. They have been opening houses and gardens to the public since 1998 and every year since has been a record for both houses open and visitors says their web site. In 2012, 58 private properties will open their doors to visitors in Eastern England (10 new) covering six counties with Hertfordshire and Northamptonshire joining the scheme for the first time. However, ItV has now broken out of the East to start the same scheme in the West Country, with 18 houses opening under the same organisation in Cornwall, Devon and Somerset.
