Our team of estate agents in Stone have put together this guide to show you everything you need to know about this historic, countryside village.

Hartwell House & Spa

One of England’s stately homes, just 40 miles northwest of London, set in over 90 acres of gardens and parkland designed by a contemporary of Capability Brown, located within the Vale of Aylesbury and on the edge of the Chilterns, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The National Trust-owned Grade 1 listed Jacobean and Georgian house caters for weddings, wine & dining, afternoon tea, weekend breaks, and meeting and events.

Bugle Horn

A popular pub-restaurant, the Bugle Horn started life as a farmhouse, but during the early 1800s, it was used as a wine store for Hartwell House, whilst Louis XVIII of France lived there in exile. Soon after, it became known as the Plough; its current name comes from the fossils of the same name that can be seen in The Bugle Horn’s walls.
