Welcome to Stonor - one of England’s oldest manor houses, situated in one of the most beautiful settings, owned by the same family of the same faith for 850 years.
The house contains a remarkable collection of family portraits, beautiful stained glass, old Master Drawings, European Bronzes, an early 19th century wallpaper of Paris.
Visitors will find a fine display of Japanese contemporary ceramics complementing other ceramics from England, Korea, and Denmark. Lord Camoys has collected contemporary ceramics over 22 years and has had the priviledge of meeting many of the artists in person on his travels to the Far East and Denmark. See how contemporry arts sits so comfortably in an older setting.
Also on display are the dresses, worn at various events during the debutante season, which were on public display at Kensington Palace in 2009 and 2010 in an exhibition called 'The last debutantes, 1958: Season of Change'. Lady Camoys was one of the last debutantes to be presented - and to curtsey - to the Queen in 1958, after which the tradition ended
See our exhibition in the Long Gallery which shows family portraits, memorabilia and papers, some which have never been on display before.
The house, garden, old hall tea room & gift shop are open from April until the end of September. The park, with its herd of fallow deer, is also open by way of a public footpath throughout the year, from where there are stunning views of both the house and surrounding countryside.
