The Organisation

Stonor Park is an historic, privately owned stately home and garden open to the public located north of Henley-on-Thames in South Oxfordshire. Stonor has been the residence of the Stonor Family for over 850 years making it one of the oldest family homes still lived in today. The earliest parts of the house date from the 12th Century.

The house contains a unique collection of family treasures collected over the centuries, including family portraits, old masters, furniture and sculptures as well as one of the oldest family archives in Great Britain.

In addition to opening the house to the public, Stonor has recently built an exciting adventure playground for children in the grounds called Wonder Woods, and hosts a wide range of events including Stonor Supercar Sunday, The Stonor Food Festival, The Great Antique and Vintage Car Boot Fair series, The Stonor Breakfast Club, The Henley Country Craft Show, Gifford Circus, The Country Homes and Interiors Christmas Show and Christmas at Stonor.

Stonor continues to invest in its future so that it flourishes for another 850 years.
