Description
The history of Sudeley Castle and its award-winning gardens spans
over a thousand years and contains many varied tales of royal
associations, wars and periods of neglect and subsequent restoration.
The Castle has changed hands over a dozen times during its history
and today it is the private home of Lord and Lady Ashcombe, Henry and
Mollie Dent-Brocklehurst and their families.
Sudeley’s glorious gardens are amongst the very best in England,
from the centrepiece Queens' Garden, billowing with hundreds of
varieties of old fashioned roses, to the Herbal Healing Garden
which was introduced for the 2010 season.
We encourage you to take time to see the fascinating exhibitions
which explore the story of Sudeley’s history and the prominent
characters who have visited or lived at the Castle. Although the Castle
remains a family home, the 16th Century west wing which houses the
exhibitions and coffee shop, St Mary’s Church where Katherine Parr lies
buried, the gardens, Pheasantry, medieval ruins and adventure playground
are for you to explore and experience at your leisure. The private
family apartments are available to see on selected weekdays – Tuesdays,
Wednesdays and Thursdays only – as part of our guided Connoisseur Tours.
We look forward to welcoming you to Sudeley.
