Waddesdon
Crossness |
We plan to return to Federation House, near Leatherhead, where we had such an enjoyable stay in December 2023. At the moment all our plans are provisional, as it’s difficult to make firm bookings so far ahead, but this is what we hope we will be doing: Friday 5th December Travel to Waddesdon Manor. This is one of the National Trust's finest properties. It’s a French Renaissance-style château with an extensive art collection, landscaped gardens, aviary and woodland playground. Dinner at our hotel. Saturday 6th December After breakfast we travel to Crossness Pumping Station. Known as The Cathedral of the Marshes it demonstrates the genius of one of the greatest Victorian civil engineers. In its own way the interior decoration is a match for any of our great houses. We have a guided tour, which includes tea, coffee etc. It may seem an odd destination, but a local WI group have told us that it was a great visit. We aim to be back in Swanage around 7pm
As usual the cost includes bed, breakfast, dinner, property entry* and gratuities. * Non-National Trust members will have to pay for entry to Waddesdon.
