The Wittington Estate was created in 1898 as a family home for Hudson Ewbanke Kearley, later Viscount Devonport. The house was designed and built by Reginald Blomfield, who was also responsible for the restoration of Chequers. Kearley spent 35 years working on the gardens at Wittington; they were also featured in Country Life magazine in 1927 and again in 1928.

After Kearley's death in 1932, the estate was split up. In 1935 Garfield Weston, the Canadian owner of Associated British Foods, took up residence.

In 1948 the Salvation Army took over the house as an Eventide House for elderly ladies at a peppercorn rent from the Weston family. The estate was disbanded after Weston's death and sold. SAS UK bought the Wittington estate in 1985. Since then the grounds and buildings have undergone a series of remarkable transformations. SAS UK is proud to be the trusted custodian of this amazing site and its rich history.
