    Luton Hoo is a stunning example of an English country house and history gone by. Built some time before the 16th century, the manor is thought to have belonged to various elite families before passing into the hands of MP Francis Herne in 1751.

    The present house was designed by neoclassical architect Robert Adam at the end of the 18th century. In the 20th century, Sir Julius Wernher who made his money in diamonds bought the estate and lavishly redesigned the interior. The Werher family allowed the army to use the estate for tank testing during the second world war.

    Today, the house has been transformed into a luxury hotel, golf resort and spa. The country grounds still belong to descendants of the Wernher family who run it as a country estate. You can find more information, here: lutonhooestate.co.uk
