Set against the beautiful backdrop of the Cotswold hills, Sudeley Castle is regarded as one of England's most romantic castles. It has royal connections spanning a thousand years and has played an important role in the turbulent and changing times of England's past.
Sudeley was once the magnificent palace of Queen Katherine Parr, Henry VIII's last and surviving wife who is buried in the castle church. Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn, Lady Jane Grey and Elizabeth I stayed at Sudeley Castle. Charles I resided here while his nephew Prince Rupert established Sudeley as his garrison headquarters during the English Civil War. |
