Hill Top is a small house and a timed entry system is in operation to avoid overcrowding and to protect the fragile interior. As this can be a very busy property, visitors may sometimes have to wait to enter the house, early sell outs are common, as a result of a limited daily quota. Access to the garden and shop is always possible during opening hours, tickets cannot be booked in advance Opening arrangements   House  3 Mar–30 Mar 07  10:30–4:30 Sa Su  31 Mar–27 May 07  10:30–4:30 Mo Tu We Sa Su  28 May–31 Aug 07  10:30–4:30 Mo Tu We Th Sa Su  1 Sep–21 Oct 07  10:30–4:30 Mo Tu We Sa Su  22 Oct–28 Oct 07  10:30–4:30 Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su Shop/garden  8 Jan–25 Feb 07  10:30–4 Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su  3 Mar–4 Nov 07  10:30–5 Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su  5 Nov–23 Dec 07  10–4 Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su KEY: Dark blue=open Admission by timed ticket for all visitors.
