Hughenden Manor
Hughenden Manor in the Chiltern Hills of Buckinghamshire was the much-loved country home of Queen Victoria's great Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli. He transformed the earlier farmhouse into a romantic Gothic Revival manor in the 1860s, and both the house and grounds retain a great deal of his personal character and collections. During the Second World War, the house played a secret role in Allied strategic mapping — a fascinating hidden layer to an already compelling place.
