Gardens

The stunning gardens of Prestwold Hall are just as breathtaking as the interior, extending out from the main house into beautiful countryside.

the park

Set in 2,500 acres of land in the heart of the Leicestershire Wolds, Prestwold Hall offers spectacular views of gently rising parkland to the south.

Having rebuilt the Hall in the 1760s, Charles James Packe also created the parkland around it. This description, written by English printer and author John Nichols, paints a beautiful image of the area surrounding Prestwold Hall:

“The house, in every point of view shews itself delightfully shaded with wood, being ornamented with large plantations of forest-trees; Mr Packe having, perhaps, planted and raised within the last thirty years, more trees than any gentleman in this county.”

St Andrew’s Church

Just a short walk from the Hall through the beautiful gardens, you’ll find St. Andrew’s Church.

This Grade II listed medieval building has been passed down as part of the Prestwold Estate for hundreds of years, before coming to the Packe family in 1653. While many of the original features have been replaced or destroyed over the years, parts of the tower and chancel still maintain their original 13th century masonry.

St Andrew’s Church still serves the local community and is regularly used for Holy Communion, baptisms and weddings.
