Mottisfont Abbey was a priory that used to welcome pilgrims en route to Winchester, who came to warship the relic of St. John the Baptist's finger.

The name Mottisfont came from the spring or the font. An Augustinian priory was founded here in 1201. Sir William Sandys transformed from the medieval church into his country home by adding wings on either side to the existing priory. The latest owner Maud Russel gave the house and the ground to National Trust in 1957.

The property is now operated by the National Trust. About 350,000 people visit each year
