Kingston Bagpuize House and Gardens online: information and bookings
The family home of Virginia Grant and her children Elizabeth and Alexander, Kingston Bagpuize House is open to the public on selected days and for group visits, by appointment, throughout the year. The house and grounds are also available for wedding receptions private functions, corporate events and filming.
Virginia Grant inherited Kingston Bagpuize House in 2003 upon the death of her husband Francis. The House was previously owned by her mother-in-law Jean, Lady Tweedsmuir who
inherited it from her aunt Miss Marlie Raphael who purchased the estate in 1939.
Thought to have been built originally in the 1660's, the house seen today is largely the result of remodelling done in the early 1700's when extensive work is believed to have been done to both its exterior and interior.
Set in parkland with more formal gardens near the house the grounds provide year round interest and colour.
The main facade is East facing and until the 1860's the house was approached and entered
