Built for a dashing young Scottish laird, Patrick Home of Billie, in 1758 on a ridge overlooking the majestic River Tweed, Paxton House is one of the finest 18th century Palladian country houses in Britain. The House boasts interiors by Robert Adam and the finest collections of furniture by Thomas Chippendale of Wedderburn, to include the largest picture gallery in a Scottish Country House, Paxton now houses over 70 paintings from the National Galleries of Scotland. With 12 period rooms to explore, over 80 acres of gardens, woodland and parkland and a mile of the breathtaking River Tweed for you to enjoy, together with the Carriage House shop, Stables tea-room, adventure playground, picnic areas, changing exhibitions, and more, Paxton is simply not to be missed.
