Hartwell House near Aylesbury is now a hotel. The haunting attached to it is of a former owner named John Lee, whose form is said to be seen in the library and in the garden areas.
The listing that records the story gives no date for Lee's ownership or death and no date for any sighting. It describes the activity as visual, reported by more than one witness, and harmless, but names none of them.
The tale is best read as a local house tradition. The identity of the ghost comes from the story as repeated, not from any dated account that could be checked against estate records, so it is tagged as a single report.
