Ascott House
Ascott House was originally a half timbered Jacobean farmhouse, bought in 1876 by the de Rothschild family and considerably transformed and enlarged to form a family home. It now houses a quite exceptional collection of fine paintings, Oriental porcelain, English and French furniture. The extensive gardens are a mixture of formal and natural containing specimen trees and shrubs, with a remarkable topiary sundial.
