Explore Edwardian Interiors and Botanical Gardens
Visitors can explore restored period rooms across two floors, featuring William Morris textiles and period furnishings that showcase Edwardian family life. The Botanical Gardens offer a chance to wander seven acres containing over 6,000 plant species, including a restored walled garden, a 1930s Japanese bridge, an orchid glasshouse, and a woodland walk.
The Terrace Tearoom provides outdoor dining overlooking the gardens, while the outdoor press room displays restored 19th-century printing presses.
Birmingham Honey Show and Local Produce
In partnership with the Birmingham & District Beekeepers Association, the Birmingham Honey Show allows attendees to watch expert beekeepers work with active hives behind protective glass viewports. Visitors can sample local honey varieties, purchase handmade beeswax products, and browse local artisan produce stalls.
Heritage Week also includes free tours and paid experiences within the Botanical Gardens, with the house open to the public throughout the event.
