Welcome to Waddesdon

Waddesdon is a small village located in the Aylesbury Vale district of Buckinghamshire, England. The village is known for its beautiful architecture and rich history. The most notable attraction in Waddesdon is the Waddesdon Manor, a French Renaissance-style chateau built in the late 19th century by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild. The manor is now a National Trust property and is open to the public for tours and events.

Apart from the Waddesdon Manor, the village also has several other historic buildings and landmarks. The St. Michael and All Angels Church is a Grade I listed building that dates back to the 12th century. The church has a beautiful interior with stained glass windows and a 15th-century rood screen. Another notable landmark in Waddesdon is the Five Arrows Hotel, a former coaching inn that has been converted into a luxury hotel. The hotel is located just a short walk from the Waddesdon Manor and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Waddesdon is also home to several annual events and festivals. The Waddesdon Manor hosts a Christmas Fair every year, which features over 80 stalls selling gifts, decorations, and food. The village also hosts a biennial Waddesdon Festival, which showcases local talent in music, dance, and theater. With its rich history, stunning architecture, and vibrant community, Waddesdon is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Buckinghamshire.
