(Re)discover the Coronation Cheese scone this month!

In this savoury scone, strong mature Cheddar is paired with curry spices and sultanas. As a cream tea, it is served with a tangy lime and coriander cream cheese, contrasted to the sweetness of a mango chutney.

We are celebrating a partnership project that is kicking off at Charlecote Park!

The National Trust are working with Severn Rivers Trust to restore the River Avon and its floodplain through the property. The project aims to create a diverse mosaic of wetland habitat across ten hectares of the floodplain at 'New Land'. This new habitat will provide foraging and breeding grounds for a variety of wildlife including wetland birds, invertebrates and amphibians. By increasing the storage capacity on the floodplain, the site will also provide natural flood management benefits, helping to slow the flow of water to downstream communities.

Over the summer we will be undertaking surveys and designing the restoration project before moving forwards with the creation of the wetland on the ground. Keep an eye out for updates and we hope to be able to show you this rejuvenated landscape very soon.

Interestingly (and with some artistic licence), in the past few years, we've grown most of the flowers represented on the Drawing Room cabinet door in our gardens (apart from the crown imperial in the centre of that pietra dura composition, but you can't have everything!).
