"We've visited Boughton House a few times but this was our first visit back this year and as always, we were not disappointed. The gardens are well kept, the flowers looked beautiful and the parkland makes for an excellent walk. We're looking forward to coming back with a picnic."

"Beautiful house, gardens were amazing. Tour guides knew their stuff. Not too many people on the tour, so we could hear everything. Just enough time between tours, to fit in a bit of lunch, sandwiches were good. Toilets were the nicest, cleanest toilets I have ever used in a public place. Wear your walking boots if you plan on seeing everything. Well worth the money."

“A fine visit yesterday not our first visit but the first time we booked onto all available house tours. We really enjoyed them. For such a grand and imposing house it has such a lot of friendliness and charm about it. Your staff and tour guides tick all the boxes and thanks to Mr Lister for managing all this so well and leading our final tour. I will mention your tea room the cakes are marvellous and the young lady who served us is an absolute delight. We are sure to return to enjoy the gardens as they progress through the season.”

"One of the hidden gems of Northamptonshire. Glorious gardens and a stunning house to look round once lockdown is lifted. Great little gift shop as well. When it's Christmas time you can also buy a great tree from here as well."
