Buckhurst Park, Grade II listed country house in Withyham, England.
Description
Buckhurst Park is a country house with gardens designed by Edwin Lutyens and grounds landscaped by Humphry Repton in Sussex. The estate spreads across extensive pastures where Sussex cattle graze.
History
The estate appears in the 1086 Domesday Book as Biochest, held by Ralph de Dene. It later connected to the Sackville family through marriage.
Culture
The grounds contain the Hundred Acre Wood, a forest connected to A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh stories. Visitors can recognize places that inspired these classic children's tales.
Practical
The estate produces beef from cattle raised on its pastures, available for visitors to purchase. The best time to walk the grounds is during mild weather when all pastures are fully accessible.
