A 1930s country house with world‑class art and mirror‑pool gardens
Upton House is a striking 1930s mansion filled with an exceptional art collection — including works by Bosch, Stubbs and El Greco. The house sits above terraced gardens that drop down to a long mirror pool framed by woodland.
It’s quieter than many National Trust sites, making it ideal for a slow afternoon of art, architecture and peaceful garden walks.
Host tips
✓ The mirror‑pool walk is the highlight — don’t miss it
✓ House rooms are small — visit early to avoid queues
✓ Limited opening days — check ahead
