SUMMARY:Secrets of the Service Wing Tour
DESCRIPTION:Seasonal/Special Events\, Tours\n\n\n\n\nTickets for this tour include access to Westbury House and the gardens. All tickets are non-refundable. \n\n\n\nFor many years visitors to Westbury House asked what was beyond the first-floor corridor. Now they can go beyond the door and discover “secrets of the service wing.” \n\n\n\nIn this 60-minute guided tour you’ll be introduced to the intensive labor required to create the lifestyle experienced by the Phipps and their guests. You’ll tour the many rooms that were “behind the scenes” to create the formal dining experiences of the social peers of the Phippses in the early 20th century. You’ll go along the corridors to the butler’s pantry and silver cleaning room then descend the 17 steps to the kitchen\, scullery\, and wine storage rooms located on the ground floor. \n\n\n\nNEW for 2026! As part of the tour\, visitors will now walk through the stately Dining Room and get closer than ever before to the art and historic furnishings that define this grand space—experiencing it not from behind a rope and stanchions\, but as it was meant to be seen. \n\n\n\nThis tour lasts a little over one hour and because of its physical demands\, it is not recommended for individuals with limited mobility or children under 8 years of age. This tour requires descending a narrow staircase of 17 steps down to the ground floor/basement\, so no person (including children and infants) may be lifted or carried throughout the tour. \n\n\n\n\n\nPURCHASE TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\nBECOME A MEMBER

SUMMARY:Lecture: Austen’s Shelf: Don’t Quit Your Daydream
DESCRIPTION:Seasonal/Special Events\, Tours\n\n\n\n\nThis event is part of Regency Romance Weekend. \n\n\n\n\n\nCharity of Jane Austen’s Shelf never planned on becoming a bookstore owner until a cancer scare reminded her that tomorrow isn’t promised. What began as fear turned into realizing what truly mattered\, which then spurred action. Today\, she runs a thriving bookstore in South Jersey and encourages others to stop waiting for “someday.” In Don’t Quit Your Daydream\, she shares how adversity can reveal exactly what we’re meant to chase. \n\n\n\nJane Austen’s Shelf: Inspired by Jane Austen and guided by a deep belief in the power of stories\, Jane Austen’s Shelf is designed to meet readers where they are: whether at cozy coffee shops\, bustling malls\, charming wineries\, or markets. Inside this rolling tiny bookshop on wheels\, you’ll find shelves filled with sweet romances\, timeless classics\, young adult favorites\, non-fiction\, and regency themed treasures perfect for gifting or collecting.

SUMMARY:Secrets of the Service Wing Tour
DESCRIPTION:Seasonal/Special Events\, Tours\n\n\n\n\nTickets for this tour include access to Westbury House and the gardens. All tickets are non-refundable. \n\n\n\nFor many years visitors to Westbury House asked what was beyond the first-floor corridor. Now they can go beyond the door and discover “secrets of the service wing.” \n\n\n\nIn this 60-minute guided tour you’ll be introduced to the intensive labor required to create the lifestyle experienced by the Phipps and their guests. You’ll tour the many rooms that were “behind the scenes” to create the formal dining experiences of the social peers of the Phippses in the early 20th century. You’ll go along the corridors to the butler’s pantry and silver cleaning room then descend the 17 steps to the kitchen\, scullery\, and wine storage rooms located on the ground floor. \n\n\n\nNEW for 2026! As part of the tour\, visitors will now walk through the stately Dining Room and get closer than ever before to the art and historic furnishings that define this grand space—experiencing it not from behind a rope and stanchions\, but as it was meant to be seen. \n\n\n\nThis tour lasts a little over one hour and because of its physical demands\, it is not recommended for individuals with limited mobility or children under 8 years of age. This tour requires descending a narrow staircase of 17 steps down to the ground floor/basement\, so no person (including children and infants) may be lifted or carried throughout the tour. \n\n\n\n\n\nPURCHASE TICKETS\n\n\n\nBECOME A MEMBER
