### 5/5 — Tour de force

*2013-09-16, version 1.3*

The picture quality is great, and the scrolling is smooth.  The supplemental information on the rooms' contents is discrete and informative.

### 5/5 — Superb app

*2013-08-28, version 1.2*

This is almost as impressive as the exhibition itself and sets a standard that should be followed by all major exhibitions. My only criticism is that the individual images of the pictures could do with a bit more information about the picture, artist etc.
I regret that I did not find the app until after my visit.

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2013-08-23, version 1.2*

This is a truly outstanding app, a real pleasure to use and sumptuously illustrated.  Considerably better than other museum exhibition apps for which you have to pay.  Hopefully other exhibition sponsors will follow suit.

### 5/5 — A joy....

*2013-08-22, version 1.2*

A genuine joy, not to be missed by art lovers, remember to scroll up to the ceilings!

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2013-08-18, version 1.2*

It really felt like being there. Wish more galleries had this. Can't wait for real visit.

### 5/5 — Superb app

*2013-08-16, version 1.2*

Having just visited the exhibition I immediately downloaded the app.  It was like having my own private viewing with the chance to go as close as I liked.  Loved the way you moved around the room in complete authenticity.  Great!  See the exhibition but if you can't  ...get the app.

### 5/5 — Ms

*2013-08-08, version 1.1*

Fabulous app. Wonderful images and angles. A real delight.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2013-08-05, version 1.1*

A very informative and useful app. The images are high quality and this does not diminish when zoomed in. You can view the architecture and paintings in minute detail.

### 5/5 — Houghton Revisted

*2013-08-04, version 1.1*

The most exciting, magnificent unique show. Anyone who appreciates beauty, historical importance of a collection would be crazy to miss it. Don't forget the walled garden and newly made courtyard area to have a delicious snack. Patricia

### 5/5 — A rich experience

*2013-07-15, version 1.1*

This app offers a sumptuous and informative introduction to this beautiful collection.  A truly impressive achievement.

### 5/5 — App

*2013-07-06, version 1.0*

Great app - the detailed images and commentary are fabulous

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2013-07-02, version 1.0*

Amazing exhibition

### 5/5 — Cannot wait till our next visit to Kings Lynn

*2013-06-26, version 1.0*

As a family on a budget this certainly shows what value for money the £46 family ticket is.  

So much better than a few still shots of a couple of rooms that you otherwise get

### 5/5 — Beautiful photography

*2013-06-21, version 1.0*

As somebody who could be described as an enthusiastic amateur, I appreciate high-quality photography, the value of which is rapidly being eroded by a fast-moving low-impact society. It's nice to see this glimpse of a beautiful old house with (in the best possible sense) beautiful old fashioned photography with care taken over a subject matter clearly important to the person.

### 4/5 — Moi

*2013-07-23, version 1.1*

Excellent visual display, beautiful!
A simultaneous audit guide would be useful.

### 5/5 — Thee Best!

*2017-03-07, version 1.4*

This is my favorite app of all time. I "revisit" it often, and each time - - it's a real joy to do so. Thank you for creating/providing it.

### 5/5 — WoW! A MUST SEE, BEAUTIFUL !

*2017-03-06, version 1.4*

Thank you so much for allowing the public to view this fabulous property via this app. What a wonderful way to see inside the house which takes my breath away. For 8 years I was the Custodian of & lived at GB Shaw's home Shaw's Corner so I know all about conserving historic houses. You certainly have a property to be proud of.

### 5/5 — One of the best apps ever produced

*2015-10-30, version 1.4*

I am not kidding when I say this, this is one of the most beautiful apps ever created. 
This is the only app that I've come across that makes one feel as if they are virtually there, experiencing a beautiful mansion and works of art. 
The closest to traveling without having to actually be there. 
Amazing that it's the only app of its kind out there, really.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2015-04-03, version 1.4*

Also makes a wonderful souvenir of our visit. So good to be able to revisit the rooms whenever I want

### 5/5 — Review

*2014-06-13, version 1.4*

Wonderful!!

### 5/5 — Spectacular!

*2014-06-13, version 1.4*

This app is beautifully produced and photographed.  It is indeed a delight to enjoy each room that is presented at one's leisure and take a virtual tour of everything in each room, including the ceiling, in all its' consummate glory.

I wish more stately British mansions would open their homes to this viewing idea and allow us to view their impressive collections from the comfort of our own homes.

Take this app as a rich jewel and add it to your own collection of guilty little pleasures.  You will not be disappointed.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2014-05-17, version 1.4*

Invaluable application, memorialising a wonderful time in the history of Houghton Hall.

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2013-11-09, version 1.4*

This App is outstanding. Invaluable during our visit to Houghton enabling a close look at pictures hung too high up in the rooms for close examination. Very surprised we only saw one other person using the App on an iPhone. Our iPad version was much admired by other visitors. Well done to the makers.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2013-10-06, version 1.3*

A beautiful app, very easy to use. I am not a techno savvy person but I found this really easy to use. Very informative and now I am definitely going to the exhibition. I wish more museums would do this.

### 5/5 — Houghton revisited

*2013-10-02, version 1.3*

Wonderful App, beautiful HD images and seamless panning around the interiors of this stately building.
A great preview for our visit.
I would love the App, to develop further and show some of the grounds, which are said to be really fantastic.
