The late Queen Mother remarked ‘This is a nice house….’ on her honeymoon at Polesden Lacey. This country house has glorious views across the Surrey Hills and gardens that offer something for everyone. The glittering interior, designed to impress royalty the world over, houses a collection of art from the Dutch Masters, sparkling Faberge, and more.
