Explore Fioli Historic House & Garden
Located 15 minutes from Nantucket Whale Inn, Filoli is a historic site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Visitors are welcome to explore the house, gardens, exhibits, trails, shop, cafe and more!
Designed between 1915 – 1917 and set against the dramatic backdrop of the northern Santa Cruz Mountains in Woodside, California, Filoli is an excellent example of the Golden Age of American garden design and country house architecture.
Opened to the public in 1976 as a site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Filoli features a 54,000 sq. ft. home and a 16 acre English Renaissance Garden. In addition, Filoli’s property includes a 6.8 acre Heritage Orchard and a trail system with guided nature hikes and visits to the Sally MacBride Nature Center.
Today, Filoli is recognized as one of the finest remaining country estates and is a cherished resource for the community valuing education, volunteerism and diversity.
