Join the guests of Lord and Lady Bearsted and experience a weekend house party of a 1930s millionaire
Surrounded by internationally important art and porcelain collections, hear and discover more about family life and soak up the atmosphere of the party.
See the red and silver art deco bathroom and get close to artworks by El Greco, Stubbs and Bosch.
The stunning gardens – being returned to their 1930s heyday – have a sweeping lawn that gives way to a series of terraces and herbaceous borders leading to a kitchen garden, tranquil water garden and spring bulb displays.
Join in the events at Upton
There is a host of special events at Upton this summer - cars and costumes at our Millionaire's House Party; family events and jazz and Pimms on the lawn.
There's always a reason to come back
The garden is always changing and we are always adding new things and discovering new stories about the family. So come along and see what's new this season.
Summer jazz and dancing on 27 July
Bring your friends and a picnic on 27 July to the jazz party of the year! Enjoy the Pimms and champagne bar before you shake off any extra calories by learning how to dance 1930s style.
