Upton House & Gardens
Upton, Banbury, Oxfordshire, OX15 6HT
Description
Join the guests of Lord & Lady Bearsted and experience the weekend house party of a 1930s millionaire. Surrounded by the internationally important art and porcelain collections, hear and discover more about family life and join in the pastimes of the party. See the red and silver art deco bathroom and get close to art works by Hogarth, Stubbs and Bosch. The stunning garden is being returned to its 1930s heyday, the sweeping lawn which gives way to a series of terraces and herbaceous borders leading to a kitchen garden, tranquil water garden and the national collection of Asters.
