A family home, delightful gardens and an idyllic setting

An intimate family home and peaceful estate set in the rolling hills of the Chilterns.

This picturesque 16th-century mansion and tranquil gardens were home to the Brunner family until recent years. The house exudes a welcoming atmosphere with a well-stocked kitchen and homely living rooms.  The series of walled gardens is a colourful patchwork of interest set amid medieval ruins.

Other buildings from earlier eras include the Great Tower from the 12th century and a rare Tudor donkey wheel, in use until the early 20th century.

Get snapping this spring

Explore the gardens and woodland for the first signs of spring. Jolly snowdrops, followed by cheerful daffodils, then the heavenly scent of bluebells. Visit in the coming months and be delighted by the  displays of colourful bulbs.

Downton debut

In summer of 2012 we provided a perfectly magical location for a picnic scene in series three of Downton Abbey. Follow in the footsteps of the Crawleys and walk amongst the romantic ruins at Greys.
