Buscot Park
Buscot Park is a Georgian house in west Oxfordshire, home to the Faringdon Collection of paintings and furniture. Its showpiece is a set of large Pre-Raphaelite canvases by Edward Burne-Jones telling the tale of Sleeping Beauty. Outside, a long Italianate water garden steps down through terraces and clipped hedges towards a lake, making the grounds as compelling as the rooms.
- Burne-Jones Briar Rose paintings
- Harold Peto water garden
