Weddings & Private Events

In the 1750s at his family seat in Buckinghamshire, Ralph Verney set out to create a country house of extraordinary grandeur that would dazzle his wealthy neighbours and outdo his political rivals. Thirty years on he was facing financial ruin.

Today the interiors that remain are among the most ambitious and lavish ever created in the 18th century.

With its graceful appearance, peaceful setting and 18th century interiors, Claydon has all the ingredients for an elegant and stylish wedding or event.

Steeped in history, Claydon is one of England’s most extraordinary houses, displaying remarkable Rococo and chinoiserie decoration.
