About: Creech Grange is Grade I Listed with a Grade II* 18c Pleasure Garden of 135 acres. The house was destroyed by Cromwell and rebuilt in 1738 for Denis Bond. The chapel dates back to the 12c. The garden is overlooked by Creech Arch which serves as an eye-catcher from the Grange. The Kitchen Garden dates back to the 18c. Norman Hayward moved into the house 30 years ago and has slowly renovated both the house & gardens. This is still very much a work in progress.

Tickets will be available from 10 April
