Any been to Stowe Gardens Buckinghamshire?

I am looking for locations for a photoshoot and found this on google... and was wondering about it.

I am doing the shoot on a monday, and it says the house and gardens are not open, but the parkland is... what is included in the parkland and what is in the gardens?

I was particularly wondering about the "Palladium Bridge"... can i access this from the parkland?

I know the national trust can be funny about photographers, but I'm willing to take the chance.

also... any other locations around Banbury anyone know of? Particulary rape or poppy fields or any old buildings or anything.

I'm having a shoot in Banbury centre and was looking for somewhere outdoors to take the model afterwards to extend the shoot.
 
Stowe Gardens are National trust so you may run into some problems with the NT if you are doing an obvious Photo shoot. Did a shoot there several years ago for an editorial article. No problem but it was arranged with the NT by the magazine I was commissioned by.



The parkland is just that, open parkland. The Gardens are the interesting part. Ornamental landscape gardens and make an excellent location especially in the autumn. Massive big lake and some interesting follies, plus of course the Palladium bridge.


The house is owned by Stowe school and is not open to the public during term time.Outside term I believe it's only open on certain days. Check with the NT web site it has details

Here's link to the NT site for Stowe

Rape is probably all over by now, and it can pong a bit if you are in the middle of it and down wind
