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.

Been meaning to go again for ages as not been since I was at school - really sweet little place - few bits of great living history including a World War I trench and a Victorian Kitchen - the original Red Lion and lots of old photos of the town - little gift shop with some pretty hand made crafts and local produce - mostly reasonable prices - along with some nice cake and tea/coffee. Limited but free parking and free entry - great thing to do on a rainy day in the school holidays. Lots of courses and events as well - highly recommend
8. St Lawrence's Church

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.
9. The Dashwood Mausoleum

Reviewed By 968nicholash - London, United Kingdom
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.
10. St. Michael and All Angels
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 13 reviews
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.
