Activity Detail Page

Heale House and its 8 acres of beautiful garden, lie beside the River Avon. Much of the house is unchanged since King Charles II sheltered here after the Battle of Worcester in c1651. The garden provides a wonderfully varied collection of plants, shrubs, and musk and other roses, growing in the formal setting of clipped hedges and mellow stonework, which are at their best in June and July. Particularly lovely in spring and autumn is the water garden, planted with magnificent magnolia and acers, surrounding the authentic Japanese teahouse and Nikko bridge.
