Baddesley Clinton was the home of the Ferrers family for 500 years.
Much of the house you see today was built by Henry Ferrers, a lawyer, diarist and antiquarian, in the late 1500s.
The house was a sanctuary not only for the Ferrers family, but also for persecuted Catholics who were hidden from priest hunters in its secret hiding places during the 1590s.
- Why not take a stroll around the gardens from the walled garden to the vegetable patch and beyond; the gardens at Baddesley look beautiful whatever the season.
- The restaurant is open from 9am daily serving hot and cold food and drinks, cakes, ice cream and light bites. Don't forget to pop into the shop, also open from 9am - it is through your purchases that we are able to continue looking after Baddesley Clinton for everyone, for ever.
Come back soon...We're open all year, except 24 and 25 December, so pop back to see the changing seasons in the gardens.
