Aunt Beryl
Aunt Beryl is the Burnell children's aunt who lives at the house with them. Aunt Beryl believes the smell of paint on the doll's house is strong enough to make a person sick. Mean-spirited and cruel, at the end of the story she shouts coldly at the Kelvey children to leave the courtyard and reprimands Kezia for having brought them in.
The Burnells' Mother
Isabel, Lottie, and Kezia's mother allows the girls to bring two children at a time to view the doll's house after school. Her class prejudice is made clear by her rule that the children from school may not enter the house, and by her refusal to let her daughters even speak to the working-class Kelvey children.
