There are spectacular views from the roof over the formal parterre, lawns and surrounding countryside, as well as beautiful walks in neighbouring Ashdown Woods. Nearby Weathercock Hill and Alfred's Castle, an Iron Age hill fort where King Alfred is rumoured to have defeated the Danes, also offer fine walking (there is a car park 250m from the house, but please note the estate is closed on Fri)

CHASTLETON HOUSE, Chastleton, Moreton-in-Marsh Oxfordshire GL56 0SU
Chastleton House is one of England's finest and most complete Jacobean houses. It is filled not only with a mixture of rare and everyday objects, furniture and textiles collected since its completion in 1612, but also with the atmosphere of four hundred years of continuous occupation by one family. The gardens have a typical Elizabethan and Jacobean layout with a ring of fascinating topiary at their heart and it was here in 1865 that the rules of modern croquet were codified. Since acquiring the property, the Trust has concentrated on conserving it rather than restoring it to a pristine state

One of England's most extraordinary houses. In continuous occupation by the Verney family for over 350 years, Claydon was originally a Jacobean manor house, but was remodelled in the 1750s at a time when the craze for chinoiserie was at its height. The result was the remarkable series of rooms we see today, lavishly decorated in intricately carved white woodwork covered with motifs based on Oriental birds, pagodas and summer-houses

This beautiful Palladian mansion was built in 1776--83 by John Carr for Francis Sykes, who had made his fortune in India. The interior is notable for its original delicate plasterwork and elegant staircase, as well as for the unusual Octagon Room. The house fell on hard times in the early part of this century, but was rescued by Lord & Lady Iliffe, who restored it and filled it with fine pictures and furniture. The early 19th-century pleasure grounds are currently being restored, and there are waymarked trails through the parkland. At the top of Streatley Hill nearby is a car park giving access to The Holies and Lardon Chase, an outstanding area of downland and woodland with many beautiful walks and breathtaking views
