THE STORY

Built in 1710 for the aristocratic Orlebar family and modelled on the original Buckingham Palace, Hinwick House is a grand Grade I listed Queen Anne country house set in 38 acres of magnificent parkland.

Hinwick House has served as a private family residence for the last 302 years and the estate consists of the Queen Anne Main House spread over 3 floors with over 20 bedrooms, the Victorian Wing, the Stables, 3 Turret Cottages, the Great Hall, 2 ornamental lakes, a deer park, a magnificent clock tower, a period walled garden and an ancient dovecote.

Originally built for Richard Orlebar and his wife Diana Astry, the Hinwick House and estate has recently undergone a extensive detailed restoration and has now been returned to its former glory as a magnificent family home. The house is now the principal family home of the Singh family.
