A spokesperson from the website said: “Waddesdon Manor has a French renaissance chateau style and period interiors which, alongside the collections of contemporary art, make it an art lover's dream to explore.

“Throughout the year there is an exciting array of events for all the family to enjoy, however during the Winter, the grounds really come to life.
