Nature in Art near Gloucester is a museum and art gallery at Wallsworth Hall, dedicated exclusively to art inspired by nature in all forms, style, and media. The museum has twice been specially commended in the National Heritage “Museum of the Year” award.

A special exhibition “Treasure Hunter” honours the founder of the museum and shows many artefacts from his collection, including glass, ceramics, woodwork, sculpture, and paintings – something to appeal to anyone.

Coffee on arrival is included.

We move on at 12.30 pm to Sudeley Castle. Set against the stunning backdrop of the majestic castle and surrounded by striking views of the Cotswold hills, there are ten magnificent award-winning gardens which sweep around the castle and grounds. Renowned for the lovely roses, June has been chosen to show them to advantage.

Sudeley is the only private castle in England to have a queen buried within its grounds – in the 15th century church, where Katherine Parr now lies.

Entrance to the castle and gardens included. Take a picnic or enjoy one of the several eating places there.

Return to Thame approx. 6 pm.
