Sudeley Castle, Gloucestershire
Sudeley Castle is a 10th century castle and award-winning
gardens located near Winchcombe in Gloucestershire. With a rich history spanning
over a thousand years which includes tales of royal associations, wars and periods
of neglect and subsequent restoration, Sudeley Castle offers a fascinating journey
into the past.
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. The castle was built prior to 1066 but the occupied portion
is mainly Elizabethan.
The 16th Century west wing houses the exhibitions and coffee shop, and there is
St Mary's Church where Katherine Parr, the sixth wife of King Henry VIII, lies buried,
medieval ruins and adventure playground as well. The 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 has been
introduced for the 2010 season.
