About Cliveden
The Inspirational Country House
Built by the Duke of Buckingham for his mistress, Cliveden became the focus of the Profumo affair, and where Meghan Markle chose to spend the evening before her wedding to Prince Harry.
Cliveden’s story started with a scandal when in 1666 the Duke of Buckingham built the first great house here for his mistress and then fatally wounded her husband in a duel. Three hundred years later, a scandal of the same magnitude engulfed Cliveden when in 1963 it became the focus of the Profumo Affair.
With over two miles of woodland walks, in National Trust land, it’s hard to believe that this country house is so close to London. The exquisitely manicured gardens ooze grandeur.
The all-electric Mercedes EQV charging outside Cliveden. The EQV offers a luxurious and sublime ride. Plenty of luggage space for airport transfers. It is a very sociable vehicle.
The Spa
The spa is centred on the heated outdoor pool, where John Profumo first met Christine Keeler. Sun loungers frame the lawn, and it features two hot tubs. Inside there is a heated indoor pool, whirlpool tub, steam room and infrared sauna.
The box has been left on my bed at Cliveden, the stately home that Nancy’s father gave her on the occasion of her marriage. It is now a hotel. But, reader, it is not just any hotel. No – it is one of the most superb hotels I have ever had the pleasure of staying in.
