Spetchley Park
Local highlightOpen to visitorscheck opening times and admission before you go
Spetchley has belonged to the Berkeley family since the early 1600s, and successive generations have packed its thirty acres with rare plants, trees and shrubs — one of the largest private collections in the country. The gardener’s touch that shows most is the Willmott sisters’, who filled the borders around 1900; the peonies gathered then, some from Ellen Willmott’s plant-hunters, still put on a show through May and June. East of Worcester, open with a charge; Worcestershire Parkway station is about 3km south.
