Britain's What's On Event Guide
Rooftop Tours of Stowe House
Enjoy the chance to climb the noble cantilevered stone staircase to admire the magnificent view from the roof and look over the world-famous Gardens; this truly is ‘the finest view in England’. These tours are unique and extremely popular so early booking is essential.
What You Need to Know
To make sure you have the best experience, here are a few things to keep in mind:
Weather Dependent: Our rooftop tours rely on good weather, so we’ll keep an eye on the forecast
Getting Here: Please arrive via the Stowe House private entrance (MK18 5EH, signposted Stowe School), where you’ll find parking close to the House
Access and Suitability: The rooftop is reached via four flights of steep stairs, if you have knee, back, or heart conditions, or if you’re heavily pregnant, please consider whether the climb will be comfortable for you—especially as the last set of stairs is quite steep
Under-18s are not permitted on the roof
Dress Comfortably: Practical footwear is a must—no high heels please
Tickets: Please note that your ticket does not include access to the National Trust Gardens
