We stayed in one of Paxton House’s new glamping pods this autumn and were utterly enchanted. Nestled beside the stately home, forest walks, and the gentle River Tweed, the setting is delightful. The pod itself radiated hygge. Warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for comfort. Crisp mornings, golden leaves, and birdsong made it feel like a storybook escape. The staff were exceptional, going above and beyond to make our stay special. From the immaculate interiors to the peaceful surroundings, everything was perfect. A truly restorative retreat that blends nature, history, and hospitality with effortless charm. We can’t wait to return.

One of the most uplifting stately home visits I have had. In part, this is because I am a Paxton, so my ancestors came from the village of Paxton. Paxton House was in the Home family, so, no relation. The exterior is restrained elegance. The excellent, knowledgeable tour guide took a small group of 20, beginning with the kitchen, processing through the less elegant rooms to the finale of majestic rooms. These last rooms are quite magnificent, with Robert Adam ornament & decoration. I did not have to pay admission as I am a member of Historic Houses. Cafe & shop are VG. VISIT PAXTON HOUSE.

We had the most incredible day celebrating our wedding at Paxton House. The venue was stunning and adaptable. Mel was truly wonderful, no job or idea was too big, small or weird for her! She was down with all our suggestions and committed to making them work. We loved that the venue was so ready to let us make our day specific to us – like bringing in an Iranian chef we loved from London to do the catering and having drinks and canapés by the river. We had ca. 130 guests travelling from all over the world, and everyone were very impressed with Paxton House and the set up of the wedding. We could not have been happier with the whole experience, from start to finish. Thanks to everyone at Paxton for making it such a special day!
