Hughenden Manor (exterior)

National Trust properties have begin to open up again (most are closed over winter), so we made the most of the weekend sunshine and took a trip over to Hughenden Manor.

Located in Buckinghamshire, is the former country house of Victorian Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli. The house was built in the 18th Century and then remodelled 1862 by the architect Edward Buckton Lamb and the behest of the Disraeli family.

The grounds of the manor include a formal gardens and a woodland park. Most the garden is still dead, so you may want to delay your visit by a month or so if you're planning a visit. The house itself, is of course impressive at any time of the year.
