The house

Explore the cosy rooms of this Tudor timber-framed home and discover how generations of the Ferrers family lived in isolated splendour within its moat.

Gaze out at our intimate gardens through beautiful stained glass windows and imagine what it would have been like to live here at Baddesley.

The paintings

Our ancient panelled walls are covered in beautiful portraits of the Ferrers family and their friends, many the work of Rebecca Dulcibella Orpen.

Baddesley's walls are festooned with her decorative heraldic shields, each depicting a Ferrers connection from the distant past.

The gardens

Come and explore the gardens at Baddesley, from the walled garden to the vegetable patch. See if you can spot any fish in the stew ponds or even carp in the murky moat waters.

There's also the nature trail through the woodland. What wildlife will you spot on your visit?

Baddesley estate

Enjoy the full estate of Baddesley Clinton. See Badger’s Dell, the medieval quarry from which stone was extracted to build the house, or the 18th-century oaks which are scattered across the estate.

You could even take in a walk to nearby Rowington Church, along the Heart of England Way.
