Unsure why all the 1 star reviews mentioning this is a bad place for children. I took my daughter here, and she loved it 🥰🥰 at the sight of the slightly darker things, she said papa, the black things, they give us comfort, don't they? Why do we feel warmth only in the embrace of the abyss, papa? Am I still a real girl? Anyway I went home alone

We visited yesterday and it was well worth the wait.The whole place was beautiful with the front and rear gardens turned into artistic idyls as well.The whole thing was "just my cup of tea" from an artistic perspective and Stephen and Michael were on hand answering questions and to help make it a great visit...

Such a cool place. My faves were the life-size 'creatures' and mosaics made from teapots, cups etc. Well the mosaics in general. Every piece in the house has a story and that's what makes it interesting and thought provoking. Bought a few postcards to put up in my gallery hallway. I think you could visit many times and see / read something new. I'll be back with my husband so he can experience it too. Lovely intro into how the house started too. And Stephen and Michael are a fabulous pair. In response to the silly parents leaving one star, my neices and nephews would be fascinated, but that's what comes of not being sheltered and encouraging curiosity and creativity. There is absolutely nothing occult in the house (take it from someone interested in occult), a few broken and painted dolls are hardly the stuff of nightmares. I'd highly recommend taking a look at the many available photos before deciding whether this place is right for your child, of course it won't be for everyone, and that's ok. It's up to you to research and decide. Art is personal. Art is subjective. If it doesn't cause a reaction, it's not doing its job.

The House of Dreams is absolutely extraordinary. We visited about a month ago and haven’t stopped thinking about our visit since. Stephen and Micheal are so welcoming and was fascinating to hear about Stephen’s life. I suspect many of the one star reviews haven’t actually visited the House of Dreams themselves so take no notice!

We absolutely loved the experience. Stephen and his partner Michael made us feel welcomed from the start and showed us around, giving valuable insights into the art pieces in the house. The house itself has a lot of character and soul, and it definitely won't leave you indifferent. I'd definitely go there again! Thank you so much Stephen and Michael!
