Set within a 1,200-acre rewilded estate in rural Hertfordshire, Sandon Manor is a striking Georgian home that blends historic character with contemporary comforts. Sleeping up to 16 guests, this exclusive-use retreat is ideal for multigenerational family stays, milestone celebrations or weekends in the countryside with friends.
At the heart of the estate, the recently restored Queen Anne Manor House is full of original features and personality, think wood-burning stoves, a private bar in the historic Drawing Room, and even a centuries-old musket hole in the front door.

Location:

Tucked within 1,200 acres of rewilded estate land, Sandon Manor enjoys a peaceful setting in the heart of rural Hertfordshire. Surrounded by wildflower meadows, ancient woodlands, and open countryside, the estate feels a world away, yet it's less than an hour from central London and just a short drive from Cambridge.
Located in the village of Sandon near Buntingford, guests can explore scenic walking trails, picnic spots, and curated nature experiences right on the estate. Nearby, the market towns of Hitchin, Royston, and Baldock offer independent shops, restaurants, and a thriving food scene.
For family outings or cultural day trips, visit Wimpole Hall, Knebworth House, or the historic colleges of Cambridge.
