I grew up visiting Baddesley at least once a month, my siblings and I enjoyed learning about the history of the place in addition to countless hours in running around and playing in the gardens. We were never ever bored here and I still go today as a 20 year old-I still love it! Its a nice peaceful place to... More

We stopped by recently with our two small children on a bit of a whim. It was a cold, wet, windy day and we wanted somewhere to get tea and cake. As members of the National Trust we thought we'd abuse our membership! We never really intended to go into the house but were glad we did - it was... More

I have visited very many times over 25 years and seen the property improve. Lovely old moated manor house with interesting furniture as well as an interesting story attached to the house. The Ferrers family lived here and there was an Edward Ferrers for those who appreciate Jane Austen's novel Sense and Sensibility! There's plenty to see, right from the... More

I love everything about Baddesley Clinton, I came with two friends, one of whom is in a mobility scooter, and the volunteers on reception treated her like royalty. The house is interesting, but it is the grounds that give the place a special ambience. The gardens are lovely but not 'over-done'. The cafe is brilliant and it is lovely to... More

interesting property, excellent talk by a guide before entry who gave a potted history. Very knowledgeable and so much better as an introduction than reliance on the standard guide book More
