Gardening on the grandest scale in this Georgian landscape garden and park

Country home of the Victorian statesman Benjamin Disraeli

An estate saved from almost certain demolition and lovingly revived

Glorious gardens and woodlands overlooking the River Thames

It is always a joy when the first snowdrops break through. Along with aconites and primroses, they are the harbingers of spring. The flowers arrive in pure white glory and are beloved by early emerging bees as well as us. They are beautiful seen in half-light and, of course, amidst the winter snow. See the best displays at Stowe Gardens and Cliveden with pretty clumps and patches at Hughenden and Greys Court.

From light crafting at Hughenden to in-depth learning at the Heritage and Rural Skills Centre, explore how to get creative and learn new skills with our courses and workshops. Or combine learning with exercise on guided walks at Basildon Park, Stowe Gardens, Greys Court and Waddesdon.

Sitting in parkland on the edge of the Chilterns, this stunning Grade 1 listed hotel and spa is part-Jacobean mansion and part-Georgian house.
