Discover a historic Edwardian manor, brimming with fine art, rare books, and hidden passageways, and immerse yourself in some of the most beautifully landscaped gardens in England with a visit to the National Trusts Ascott House and Gardens in Buckinghamshire.
This tranquil and elegant estate is steeped in history and offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a country house that feels both welcoming and refined. Ascott House is home to an outstanding collection of art, fine furniture, and rare Chinese ceramics, carefully gathered by generations of the Rothschild family.

Highlights include impressive 17th-century artworks by Gainsborough, Stubbs, Rodin, and Rubens, alongside exquisite 18th-century furniture and decorative treasures from around the world.
Beyond the house, marvel at more than 30 acres of landscaped gardens, designed in a harmonious blend of formal layouts and natural planting schemes. Meandering paths, colourful borders, and peaceful terraces provide the perfect setting for a relaxing stroll in every season.
