One of England's most extraordinary houses. In continuous occupation by the Verney family for over 350 years, Claydon was originally a Jacobean manor
house, but was remodelled in the 1750s at a time when the craze for chinoiserie was at its height. The result was the remarkable series of rooms we
see today, lavishly decorated in intricately carved white woodwork covered with motifs based on Oriental birds, pagodas and summer houses.
