To all the families who visited us this summer, what was your favourite game so far? 🏸⚽♟️

We've seen lots of little jousters, promising young footballers, and very creative builders having a lot of fun of the Paddock.

Come and enjoy some fresh air and fun games at Charlecote until the end of the holidays!

The second clutch of swallows that were born in the barn of Avenue Plants this year have now fledged!

Our shop staff and volunteers recently waved goodbye to the four chicks, wishing them safe travels to warmer climes (although it's hard to imagine warmer climes than the UK today! 🥵)
