Stonor Nr Henley on Thames
01491 638587 Five miles north of Henley, this historic home of Lord and Lady Camoys and the Stonor family is set within a wooded deer park.
Stonor has been the home of Lord and Lady Camoys and the Stonor family
for over eight hundred years. It is set the beautiful Chiltern Hills with commanding views of the surrounding deer park.
The house is of considerable architectural interest - built from c.1190 and
constructed over many centuries. It is a family home containing many items of rare furniture, paintings, drawings, tapestries and sculptures from
Britain, Europe and America. The house is built on the site of a prehistoric stone circle.
The medieval Catholic Chapel was used continuously throughout the years
of Catholic repression. It was a sanctuary for St Edmund Campion in 1581, and an exhibition features his life and work. Mass is celebrated in the Chapel every Sunday throughout the year.
The house is surrounded by beautiful hillside gardens containing splendid
displays of daffodils, narcissi, irises and roses.
