Limo Escape to Claydon House
If you’re in Buckinghamshire and would like to do something interesting, why not hire a limo and go and visit Claydon House in Milton Keynes. Claydon House is one of England's most extraordinary houses displaying some of the most remarkable 18th-century rococo and Chinoiserie decoration. Steeped in history, Claydon House is a fascinating showcase of stunning craftsmanship. It boasts an elaborate mahogany staircase inlaid with box, ivory and ebony and the richly decorated Chinese Room.
Home of the Verney family for more than 400 years, the extraordinary interiors of Claydon House, built 1759-69, represent a veritable three-dimensional pattern book of 18th-century traditional decorating. It has strong associations with Florence Nightingale, who was sister-in-law to Sir Harry Verney. She was a regular visitor to the house, which contains many of her personal belongings. The house was given to the National Trust in 1956 by Sir Ralph Verney, 5th Baronet. His son, Sir Edmund Verney, 6th Baronet, a former High Sheriff of Buckinghamshire, lives in the house today
Claydon House is set within 21 hectares (52 acres) of unspoilt parkland with far-reaching views and lakeside walks. There over three miles of path walkways surrounding the lakes. The courtyard contains small workshops and galleries, as well as a popular restaurant and tea-room. The private gardens are open to visitors at an additional charge.
The house is open everyday except for Thursdays and Fridays. There are guided tours of the house and gardens. During the year there are also various special events such as an annual hovercraft race as well as family friendly days. You can come for a picnic or go for a walk in the surrounding countryside. The grounds also house an impressive chapel.
Your limo can collect you from your home or hotel and take you to visit this historic landmark. Forget the hassle of driving and navigating, when you ride in a hired limousine you can sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery. So, whether you’re on holidays or just want to go somewhere different Claydon House is full of history.
