Wadenhoe House

About

Wadenhoe House was built in 1617, by the Earl of Westmoreland. A century later it passed into the ownership of Sir Edward Ward, whose  daughter Jane married Thomas Hunt   and thus the name of Ward Hunt came to Wadenhoe. The most famous Squire of the village was George Ward Hunt, who in 1868 became Chancellor of the Exchequer in the first Disraeli government.Prime Minister Disraeli and the great and good of the day were frequent visitors here during Queen Victoria reign. Wadenhoe had the first village to have a telegraph office outside of London so that contact with Westminster was possible. We are now able to offer 27 bedrooms in this stunning Jacobean manor house set in 8 acres of mature gardens, lawns and our kitchen garden where in season we grow our own soft fruits and vegetables. Set just off the A605 we are 15 minutes from the M1 and the A1 in the rolling Northamptonshire countryside with sweeping views down toward the River Nene.  We are a residential Conference and Training Centre and not a hotel therefore we are a unique venue and pride ourselves on being different We have 5 meeting rooms, syndicate rooms, cellar bar, dining rooms and lounges.
