About
Upton House is a late Georgian Grade II* listed building, set within the beautiful grounds of Upton Country Park. The house was built by Christopher Spurrier between 1816 – 1818, on what was then the Upton Estate. Following an intriguing 200 years of history, including links to the Titchborne Trials, the house and estate were passed on to the Borough of Poole in 1957
In 1976 the Country Park was officially opened to the public and, following extensive renovations by the Borough of Poole and the Country Park’s own charity group, the house began to host weddings shortly after.
