The house was built beginning 1895. It wasn’t there in the 17th century.

Just visited the Biltmore estate it was an awesome visit for anyone who loves history. George was a ‘bad boy” he enjoyed life. Now I know why Anderson Cooper is not scared to say what he wants (all in fun). I had a ball. The garden the winery…WOW!

I beleive that you should be able to buy a discounted ticket for the gardens only. Having arrived from the UK on the coldest day of the year, a walk around the house took perhaps 2-3 hours however the windchill today prevented me my wife and her family from walking around the gardens. I would like to return however my understanding is that the house tour would be the same so I would like to return just to walk the garden area but the overall cost which would include the house making it cost prohibitive to return. If i could buy tickets just for the outside areas I would return kind regards stephen

Let me guess….. ‘too expensive for you’. Or….’all that money spent on one house’. Typical. If you don’t like it, don’t go back.

You must just detest history. Or maybe there are other underlying reasons you didn’t enjoy it. I’m wondering how old you are. You talk like you’re 15

I really enjoy going there at Christmas time. All the decorations were beautiful. We returned in the spring and loved all the flowers in the garden. I half to say the money I paid was worth it. I know it takes a lot to keep this place up and in season for us to enjoy. I only wish that some of the Christmas decorations in the gift shop wasn’t so expensive.
