Middlewick House is a Grade II listed, Georgian style house in Corsham, Wiltshire, England. It is home to Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason and his wife Nettie, who acquired it from the previous owners, Andrew and Camilla Parker Bowles (now Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall) in 1995.[1][2]

The seven-bedroom building, which has been modified and expended several times during its existence, was granted listed status, protecting it from unauthorised development, in August 1986.[1] The front range is in ashlar, using Cotswold stone, with a roof of stone tiles, and dates from the 18th century.[1] The west wing is earlier.[1]

The Masons occasionally open the gardens to visitors, to raise money for charity.[2][3] The garden features a number of works by the sculptor Simon Gudgeon.[2]
