Visited this National Trust property which used to belong to Disraeli. The house is interesting and the story of Disraeli's two faiths (Jewish & Christian) was interesting as was the use of the hosue during the second world war for creating target maps of Europe. The volunteer guides were knowledgeable, attentive and interesting. Well worth a visit.

Sat on top of West Wycombe hill next to the Dashwood family mausoleum, St Lawrence's Church is a plain on the outside, except of course the glided golden ball that sits atop its tower. The interior however is lovely, stunning painting and fabulous painted ceiling. I don't believe it is open all the time but I know they do tea and cake on a Sunday afternoon. Worth going to visit.

Fascinating example of the British landed gentry celebrating its heritage in a public setting. This enormous flint and stone 18th century open-topped mausoleum has numerous urns, plaques and a central tomb, which commemorate members of the Dashwood family. There’s no public access, but you can see inside perfectly well through the iron railings.

St. Michael and All Angels sits as an enclave within the picturesque National Trust estate of Hughenden Park. The church is closely associated with the Victorian prime minister Benjamin Disraeli whose tomb lies within its grounds. There is also a memorial to him inside the church, given by Queen Victoria. St. Michael and All Angels is open every day during the hours of daylight.

My small children absolutely loved visiting Santa at odds farm today. The staff/elves were so engaging and enthusiastic. We visited Santa, made a stuffed toy and then they got to pick out their own toy! The penguin show was fun and the children loved it. Lunch at the cafe was good and they thoroughly enjoyed the soft play...a really fun day, and good value for money.. Thank you to Santa and the elves!
