Historic home with art galleries, gardens, woodlands and wetlands. Art classes, family programming, camps and more in the newly renovated Visual Arts Studio!
Very interesting older house in the Tudor half timbered style with a number of interesting Asian antiques. There is also an interesting garden and walks along the river and the forested grounds.
I was here for a wedding and the venue was gorgeous! I highly recommend it for this purpose. I enjoyed the outdoor areas, views, and wide variety of plants. I hope to return as a regular visitor someday.
An awesome museum in a beautiful location. It's hard to believe that admission is free. The grounds alone are worth a visit but the house is stunning with endless details. We came to see the Burden of the Beast art exhibit and it didn't disappoint.
This place is gorgeous! The inside of the home is the depiction of an elegance we don’t see anymore. All the intricate wood carvings on the doors walls and ceiling were truly captivating. The acres of surrounding gardens are just as gorgeous and immaculately kept. My friends and I had so much fun exploring the house, gardens and various art installations. We were also able to take some pretty cute pictures!
We had our small 10 person wedding here in the East Garden at the end of June and it was beautiful! Not only do they have a deal for their elopement package, but Heather Lindsay and her assistant Alexis were incredible to work with. Alexis even helped tie my shoe before I walked down the isle and kept me calm before the ceremony. Thank you Hermitage! We will keep coming back.

This museum is a delight, and a surprise! Much more than I expected in so many ways. The beauty of the grounds are awesome. The museum is on the river so it is lovely. There are gardens, but we didn't see anything in bloom. Inside the art collection is amazing. If you like Asian art, then you will love this museum because there is a lot of Asian art pieces among other art as well. There was a huge sculpture on exhibit (traveling) which is definitely worth seeing. They keep the museum and grounds immaculate. The staff are knowledgeable, and friendly. The Hermitage Museum and Gardens is a hidden gem, and we will return when the weather is cooler.
Awesome gardens and historic house museum. The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. This place is a hidden gem and highly recommend.
Such a surprise! This place is beautiful, and that sculpture is awesome. Great trails, wonderful museum and beautiful scenery. Will definitely return.
We filmed Sam & Jardel's wedding at The Hermitage recently and, although it wasn't our first time filming there, it was probably the most fun we have ever had. We can't recommend it enough to potential future couples! If you're on the fence, we say, go for it! The venue coordinators are extremely nice, professional and so helpful. One of the most overlooked and undersold things about The Hermitage for couples getting married there is the garden surrounding the grounds, that make for such a majestic environment for photography and videography. We rank this as one of our favorite venues in Hampton Roads to film in and highly recommend it to everybody we meet that are still searching for the right venue for them.

A nice little museum placed in the beautiful setting . Trails, interesting views of the port. Free to visit. An interesting art collection, but it is somewhat chaotic , almost randomly placed in the cabinets and underrepresented (in a sense, that very little information is provided). The museum part of the place is a bit amateurish and underfunded.
Offering seasonal you-pick strawberries, pumpkins, sunflowers, farm market, educational field trips, birthday parties. Local Produce. Christmas trees available in November/December.
