My wife and I visited Shuttleworth House in Bedfordshire in May. As we drove through the gates the gates and caught our first glimpse of this magnificent Jacobean-style mansion, we knew we were infor something special. Shuttleworth House is a masterclass in historic preservation and timeless elegance. The house itself is stunning. The rooms are grand, packed with historical detail, and beautifully maintained. It feels like stepping straight onto the set of a period drama.Every member of the team we encountered was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the Shuttleworth family history.

We visited on their open weekend, 4th-5th July. When Admission is only £7.50 for adults and kids go free. Loads of entertainment, live music throughout the day, food and gift stalls, planes and automobiles for everyone. Loved the swiss garden. Hope they'll consider more open weekends throughout the year as it's more cost effective for a family

What a wonderful place to stay. We stayed in the Garden suite which is separate to the main house and there is no food or breakfast provided. Instructions of how to get to that part of the grounds on arrival would be better if it just stated that you need to enter the grounds at the entrance to the cafe as opposed to saying the "Alder road" end, but we found it eventually. We had a fabulous lady on reception who booked us in and showed us to our room. Lovely grounds to walk around, there is the shuttleworth collection to enjoy (look it up) which is normally included in the price of the room and a big cafe on site which opens at 10am, it is right next to an airfield and being able to watch various small aircraft taking off or flying circuits it is a lovely place to stay. There are pubs close by which serve meals and there are also many events that are held at Shuttleworth House. You can buy tickets separately for the House and the various events that are held on the grounds. Well worth a visit.
