Charlecote Park, a family home for more than 900 years, was transformed in the 1800s into one of the finest examples of Elizabethan Revival style by its owners Mary Elizabeth and George Hammond Lucy. Welcome to Charlecote Park!

This Heritage Open Day we would like to showcase all that Charlecote Park has to offer. Overlooking the river Avon on the edge of Shakespeare’s Stratford, it is a place of surprising treasures, which reflect the tastes and memories of the Lucy family.

The exceptionally well preserved working spaces, the laundry, brewhouse and kitchen, give a taste of past activity, while the stables still hold the family carriage collection. In the parkland, Jacob sheep and fallow deer roam across the landscape designed by 'Capability' Brown, while the formal parterre and shady woodland garden that Mary Elizabeth loved so dearly are a haven for pollinators.

Throughout the day there will be opportunities to discover more about the House, Parkland and what it's like to volunteer at the National Trust. Discover Charlecote Talks will be taking place at: 1100, 1145, 1230, 1330, 1430; find out about our Deer from our Park Roamers; you'll also find our Playbox out on the Paddock and Dress Up in the Laundry.
