Wingrave is an extremely charming hilltop village heavily influenced by Rothschild architecture. Situated in the village, is West Lodge, a stunning example of a Rothschild property set in the original estate wall, with wonderfully ornate wrought iron railings and magnificent double entry gates with another separate gated private driveway available.

Hannah de Rothschild was born in and 1851 lived in Mentmore Towers having inherited over 4.500 acres of farmland around Wingrave, embarked on building several new buildings including West Lodge in 1876. The Rothschilds are well known in Buckinghamshire for the many country houses they built or renovated, Waddesdon Manor being the most famous.

West Lodge is a crafted detached Rothschild property that offers elegant interiors along with a sublime setting in the heart of this stunning Buckinghamshire village and sits within walking distance of the village pond, post office/shop or lovely local pub the Rose & Crown which is always worth a visit. Although Wingrave is a hidden gem in the countryside it doesn’t lack fantastic links to motorways and London Euston a mere 30 minutes away from nearby train stations.
