Britain's What's On Event Guide
Turn End - House and Garden Open Day
Turn End is renowned architect Peter Aldington's post-war family house and garden within the historic Buckinghamshire village of Haddenham. Aldington’s work is influential and acclaimed; all nine of the houses he designed are Listed, more than any other living British architect. Turn End is the exemplar of Peter’s ethos of the integration of building and landscape design. For over 50 years the Aldingtons have welcomed local, national and international audiences to their house and garden. Turn End is a place for learning, inspiration, enjoyment, a model for village housing and an enchanting and restorative space
A very special opportunity to visit 2 houses on the Turn End estate. Turn End and Middle Turn have a similar plan around a courtyard garden and the same simple and honest use of materials with quarry tiled floor, exposed timber beams and white painted blockwork, but they all enable much personal creativity and individual expression by the occupants in terms of decoration and use of the living spaces. Explore Turn End's own Grade II listed garden and visit the studio of Artist in Residence Heather Hunter, located on the Turn End estate. Teas and homemade cakes. Books and home-grown plants for sale.
