Brief description
"West Wycombe Park has been the home of the Dashwood family for over 300 years. Set in 45 acres of landscaped parklands, the house we see today is the 18th-century creation of Sir Francis Dashwood, the 2nd Baronet. Inside there is an eclectic mix of baroque, rococo and fashionable architectural styles on view in the eight rooms that are open to the public. Take a virtual tour here. https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/features/preview-the-house-tour
Landscaped parkland: One of the finest surviving 18th-century landscape gardens, West Wycombe Park, with its host of eccentric, ornamental buildings from follies and fountains, to temples and statues, stands testament to the vision of Sir Francis.
The grounds are open to the public from April to August, and there are pathways that guide you round the walks and vistas."
