Ragley Hall (grid reference SP073555) is located south of Alcester, Warwickshire, eight miles (13 km) west of Stratford-upon-Avon. It is the family home of the Marchioness and Marquess of Hertford, and is one of the great houses of England. The House and the 400-acre (1.6 km2) grounds are seasonally open to the public. The Hall is filled with fine paintings, ceramics and antique furniture. The Great Hall is adorned with stunning Baroque plasterwork by James Gibbs and the Red Saloon remains exactly as in was decorated and furnished by Wyatt in 1780. The Gardens provide colour and interest throughout the year with a Winter Garden, Spring Bulb Bank and contemporary Rose Garden among the highlights. The Woodland Walk takes you around the park and provides stunning views of the Countryside and there is also an adventure playground for children which is beautifully blended into its current surroundings.
