Spetchley Park Gardens: Just three miles east of the beautiful cathedral city of Worcester and surrounded by glorious countryside, lies one of Britain's best kept secrets. From the first tantalizing glimpse of the garden across the magnolia-fringed Horse Pool, back round to the entrance through the Melon Yard with its olives and delicious pineapple-scented flowers, Spetchley is full of surprises.
Charming and unspoilt and naturally beautiful, Spetchley is a welcoming oasis of calm and the perfect place to relax and unwind away from the distractions of modern-day life. It's a garden for quiet contemplation or a leisurely stroll, for a family picnic or an afternoon tea with friends.
You won't find a purpose-built play area for children here - just ducks and geese, squirrels and peacocks, a knobbly knee tree, some fantastic hiding places, and acres of space. Look again and woodland becomes enchanted forest, footbridge becomes castle drawbridge, and paths become jungle trails. With a little imagination, who knows what they might discover!.
