Newick
Park is a beautiful Grade II* listed Georgian House set in over two
hundred acres of landscaped gardens and parkland. It has always been
privately owned and still retains the feel of a family home. The
ambience is enhanced by great cuisine and dedicated service from
our team of staff who do all they can to ensure your stay is a thoroughly
enjoyable one.
The oldest part of the house dates from the
16th century and was an Ironmaster’s home, the extensive
Dell gardens behind the house being the site of his excavations.
After the ironworking stopped
the house fell into disrepair and was rescued by Francis Millington,
whose descendant, George Vernon of Chesham, built the main part of
the house in the 18th century.
Since Victorian times the house has changed hands several times,
being owned at one time by the Sclaters, still a prominent local
family and Lord and Lady Brentford who first started its use as a
Conference venue. The house was in very poor condition when Mike
and Virginia bought it in 1990, but they sought the advice of English
Heritage and local planners and have carried out substantial and
far reaching repairs and refurbishment to the house which will ensure
its survival far into the future
