About this activity

History and beautiful countryside await at Hughenden, a stunning 19th century red brick manor set in the Chiltern Hills, and former home to Benjamin Disraeli (twice British Prime Minister) and also the location of a secret World War Two operation!

The beautiful Chiltern valley offers views of ancient woodlands and rolling hills, and Hughenden is just as fascinating!

Here, explore the property how it wouild have looked for this Victorian Prime Minister, and his wife Mary Anne, and learn what their everyday life would have been like.

Also inside the manor, you can discover the top-secret Second World War operation that was codenamed ‘Hillside’. Do you know what Hillside was all about?

After your tour of the property, you can explore the surrounding parkland via walking trails, including Italianate-style gardens, and apple orchard and walled garden.

Make sure you make a stop at the Parish church with Disraeli's grave, and kids always love the natural play area that has been created from giant fallen logs with walkways, as well as a climbing rope and stepping stones. Great for those playful under 10s!
