Thedden Grange is a privately owned country house and estate in the civil parish of Bentworth, on the outskirts of Alton, Hampshire, England. Since renovation in the mid-1970s the original house, outbuildings and land have been divided into seven separate properties plus additional flats.

The house and grounds have been used as locations in a number of films and television programmes.[1] The estate covers 40 acres of land, among which are 9 acres of ornamental garden.[2]

I stayed there in about 1952/53, and again the next year, with my childhood friend Jane Peel and her family who lived there. Colonel Peel his wife and three children, Sybella, Robert, and Jane, who was the youngest. I believe that Colonel Peel was related to Sir Robert Peel, and Mrs Peel to Baldwin the parliamentarian.
