Get Better in Chelmsford

How do you protect 600 acres of heritage while keeping it relevant in the modern world?

Join us as we sit down with Lorraine Thorne, Manager at Hylands House, to uncover how a near-derelict estate was transformed into one of Essex’s most sought-after venues.

From grand weddings and festivals to artisan markets and corporate retreats, Hylands is more than just a historic house — it’s a living, breathing part of the community.

Lorraine shares how her team balances history with innovation, taps into new markets, and builds strong partnerships to ensure Hylands thrives for generations to come.
