A lovely place. Best in the summer as there are the most flowers out then and the weather is better. The house is worth looking around and there is a nice view from the tower onto the impressive courtyard through the window. There is a nice short walk around the nice ground and woodlands. This place has lots of history to do with Guy Fawkes.

Follow the brown direction signs and you won't get lost. Good quality parking. Back to where you drove in and let your tour begin. This is not a stately home and there are no spectacular pieces. It is a large private residence with a story and interesting curiosities. Enjoy the family portraits. In the dining room look for the long single plank refectory table. Subjectively it's the most interesting piece in the whole house but well hidden. As always the volunteers are exceedingly knowledgeable. Save time for a leisurely walk around the very well kept grounds and visit Tim's Wood. The cafe has the usual fayre but beware of the nearly 1000 calories croques.

Stunning place. They do have half of the house with scaffoldings so dont let this put.you off as you can wear a safety helmet and go up to experience. Plenty to go and see in the gardens and the flowers are all blooming absolutely stunning. Staff are so helpful and polite.

Wonderful location, especially on a sunny, spring day. Fascinating history attached to the property and the volunteer guides were all very knowledgeable and added that extra information about past and present occupants. Lovely grounds too, well worth a visit and make time to go into the two churches too, all together made for a great trip out.

Lovely and very historical National Trust property linked, as it was, to the Gunpowder Plot amongst other things. Set in lovely grounds with great walks and scenery. Nice cafeteria, too.

Beautiful property and gardens with extended grounds and riverside walk. Amazing history to both the property and family, very knowledgeable volunteers on hand to pass on their wisdom. Very interesting connection to the gunpowder plot. Two churches to visit as well. Very nice cafe /restaurant area also small coffee and ice cream parlor. Would definitely recommend.

Work on the roof restricted access to some of the property. This didn't spoil the experience. The staff/volunteers were very friendly and knowledgeable. It was lovely seeing the chandeliers at eye level whilst they were at ground level for cleaning. The grounds were a little waterlogged but again it didn't spoil the experience as there was plenty of places to walk and things to see.

Beautiful Tudor place. Barbecue on site for everyone to enjoy. Plus there is two cafes with indoor and outdoor seating. The house is stunning. In the North Wing the Throckmortons still live there and there is no access there. The gardens are beautiful and its only the beginning of spring. There are 3 walks you can do ranging from 1mile to 8 miles. Great day trip out. There is also Dovecote national trust but not open. There isn't much to see there.

Beautiful gardens and surrounding woods and walks. The house is fascinating, as is the church, but it is the gardens that are outstanding and well worth the visit. There is a cafe, complete with outside seating area and toilet facilities. All in all, a wonderful day out.

It was nice visit to Coughton Court today. We visited with kids. There is a lot to see and learn. Staff they are packing the stuff now that’s why it looks little messy but they will be unpacking again to see everything. Beautiful nature. They are plenty of car parking and toilets as well. There is cafe and shop to buy food and souvenirs. There is a plant shop too. You can do long walk as there is acres and acres beautiful gardens and green areas. You can relax.

Another stunning National Trust Property. Car parking was muddy and somewhat limited on a Sunday in Feb 2024. When we visited it was under going 'Through the Roof' to restore Coughton’s roof through external and internal repairs including repairs to internal guttering, stone and window work to prevent flooding within the building. During the summer of 2023, paintings were removed and placed in specialist racking or re-hung in different parts of the house, tapestries were rolled and stored, and other items were placed safely away ready for the project to begin. Despite this, we were still able to enjoy our visit, enjoying an excellent talk on the gunpowder plot in the church, before exploring the property. The lovely gentleman in the hallway was incredibly helpful and charming. Finally there is a lovely cafe on site, with indoor and outdoor seating, plus the obligatory bookshop.

Very sad, to say, but we were underwhelmed with the house. Yes, I know it's under a £3 million renovation program, but we didn't get the feel for it Gardens were extremely well kept and a pleasure to walk through. Maybe it will be better when the renovations are completed, maybe at the end of the year. Very sorry, Coughton

Great place with amazing gardens you could spend hours walking in. The house, which the family still live in, is undergoing some works and you can explore some of it. It has a very interesting history regarding the gunpowder plot and the volunteers were friendly and chatty, happy to answer any questions. A nice day out especially if you are a member of the National Trust

Very friendly staff who do not intrude on your visit but are helpful when approached. Lovely old buildings and interesting rooms, videos to watch re history, free live talks also in the church re the gunpowder plot today. Lake to walk round and pretty gardens, you can picnic, there's also a cafe bookshop and NT shop. Excellent visit.

Quick visit to walk around the house and gardens. It's a lovely place with a beautiful house although it's under going a roof replacing at the moment so there is a lot of scaffolding up.

What a beautiful place. Some of the loveliest gardens I have been in, and there has been a lot! Lots of parking space and loads of tables for the cafe. House was interesting even though it’s being renovated.

It was wet and windy, and the roof was undergoing a revamp but was still a lovely visit, and the food at the cafe was wonderful. Definitely going back once the works are completed and the scaffolding is down. Beautiful place.

Great place for a walk around the grounds and also to enjoy the wonderful walled garden (which was a mass of flowers on my visit). Currently the house is slightly restricted due to roof repairs but this is compensated for by them allowing you to see things you wouldn't usually see -- especially the chandeliers which are down on frames at eye level. The other current bonus is to be able to climb the scaffolding steps to view not just the building from above but also watch the workers fixing the roof. The staff in the house and grounds were all very helpful and knowledgeable. My only gripe would be the restaurant which had run out of baked potatoes and the special and gave very small portions at large prices ... however, the seating areas are very pleasant and there were plenty of free tables.

Beautiful house, grounds, Gardens. Staff so friendly and took time to talk to us. Facilities were great. Ice cream even better and the children's activities were fab! Lots to see and walk around. Could easily spend the day there.

Weather was just about ok. Fantastic walk round the woodland and river. Such a beautiful sight with all the wild garlic and bluebells and Spring flowers and shrubs. Just so beautiful.

Lovely house and beautiful gardens even in the autumn. Was slightly disappointed with the remodeling and refurbishment works preventing a full tour. Art works largely limited to the family portraits.

Beautiful property with amazing victorian gardens, a Catholic church, and links to the Civil War and Guy Fawkes Night. Very warm welcome by the staff and you mustn't miss the talks by the volunteers. Shall visiti again when the restoration of the roof is completed.

We visited for the game show, so our comments are not relevant to the house and garden. We were camping and would walk through the park to the show every day we were there. Large open spaces on the walk to the show. There was a tractor trailer with seats for those wanting to take the easy way in.

Went to the 2022 ABR Festival and it was amazing

A beautiful warm day at Ragley Hall (for the 50th anniversary of the Alcester Male Voice Choir) on Sunday 21st April.

Historic house, friendly staff, marquee perfect for weddings.

Went on the Friday ( 1st day of 3 day festival ) The organisation of getting on and off the site was really well done. The weather was amazing. But unfortunately due to strong winds the wonderful balloons couldn't fly , which of course was to be the main attraction ... so we only saw one or two being partially inflated .. a great shame. But for everything else , the Lancaster bomber, Spitfire , Hurricane and of course the Euro fighter WOW ! The RAF Falcons parachute team , the bi planes , wing walkers all very exiting ...

Just returned home from a fantastic long weekend (Thurs 24th to Mon 28th Aug) at Camper Calling Music Festival. What a great family friendly music festival in a beautiful location. The music line up was fab with Reef, Cast, Badly Drawn Boy, Gabrielle, McFly and Ocean Colour Scene performing (plus lots of others). There was something for everyone to do or listen to at the festival. This was our 3rd year of coming and it didn’t disappoint, apart from heavy showers and a bit of thunder on Saturday. This is such a great music festival if you are into great music, campervans and camping.

It was the airshow last weekend, I loved it, weather was brilliant there was a slight breeze so I was kept cool, but it got colder in the night and we didn't bring enough blankets. Note to self, next year take warm blankets for everyone

Visited Ragley Hall, Park & Gardens for the ABR Festival 2023 (Adventure Bike Rider). Fantastic event, setting, and venue. Approximately 12,000 motorcycle enthusiasts, adventure travellers speaking, famous motorcycle racers, trails, test rides, exhibitions, stalls, bands, high quality food and refreshments for a long weekend in June. Really excellent.

I photographed a beautiful wedding at Ragley Hall and wanted to say what a pleasure the staff at Ragley were to work alongside. Having captured over 1,300 weddings over almost 20 years, I've seen the good and the bad, and Ragley is up there with the best, and friendliest! With professional and helpful coordination back stage, it felt like a true team effort to give the Bride, Groom and their guests the best day ever. Here are a few photos from the day! Rich x

We had our wedding at Ragley Hall and it was amazing. The venue is amazing and the team is great as well. You are not just getting a venue with Ragley but a whole team to support you before and on the day. They might be slight more expensive than other venues however it is worth it. The team set up meetings with all the providers and help organise the day. We couldn't have done it without them. :)

I recently had the pleasure of attending the ABR festival held at Ragley Hall, and I can confidently say it was an absolute blast from start to finish! This festival brought together my love for bikes, thrilling mud tracks, delicious food, live bands, and refreshing drinks, creating an unforgettable experience. The highlight of the festival was undoubtedly the exhilarating mud tracks. As an avid bike enthusiast, I couldn't resist the opportunity to test my skills on the challenging courses. The tracks were well-designed, offering a perfect balance of excitement and safety. The adrenaline rush I felt while navigating through the muddy obstacles was unmatched, and it was incredible to witness the impressive stunts performed by skilled riders. Beyond the thrilling bike action, the festival also excelled in providing a delightful culinary experience. The variety of food options available was impressive, ranging from delectable street food to gourmet delights. I savored mouthwatering treats from various food stalls, each serving up unique and delicious dishes. The festival organizers ensured that everyone's taste buds were catered to, making it a gastronomic adventure in itself. To add to the festive atmosphere, live bands took the stage, filling the air with infectious energy and fantastic music. The lineup featured talented local and international artists who entertained the crowd with their electrifying performances. The combination of bikes, music, and enthusiastic spectators created an electric atmosphere that had everyone dancing, singing along, and thoroughly enjoying themselves. Of course, no festival experience is complete without refreshing drinks to quench your thirst, and the ABR festival had that covered too. The beverage options were aplenty, with a range of refreshing drinks available, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. It was refreshing to sip on cool beverages while taking breaks from the action, enjoying the lively ambiance and mingling with fellow festival-goers. The festival grounds were thoughtfully organized, providing ample space for attendees to explore and soak in the vibrant atmosphere. The organizers had clearly put a lot of effort into creating a visually appealing setup, with vibrant decorations and engaging activities scattered throughout the venue. Overall, the ABR festival at Ragley Hall estate was an extraordinary experience that catered to every aspect of my enjoyment. The thrilling mud tracks, mouthwatering food options, high-energy live bands, and refreshing drinks created a perfect blend of excitement and entertainment. The festival showcased a true celebration of bikes and brought together like-minded individuals in a festive and welcoming environment. I can't wait to attend next year's edition and create even more incredible memories."
