Hellens House And Gardens

Hellens House and Gardens is a romantic English Garden incorporating a rare 17th century octagonal dovecot, a physic garden, a yew labyrinth, woodland and ponds, herb and kitchen gardens.

This beautiful historic house in Much Marcle, Herefordshire, is a living monument to much of England’s history. Attractions include heirlooms of Anne Boleyn, the haunted bed chamber prepared for Queen Mary Tudor, the panelled Music Room adorned with its English Renaissance frieze, paintings by Gainsborough, Van Dyke, Peter Lely and Goya, and the fascinating story of Hetty Walwyn.

Hellens tearoom was originally the tack room for the stable blocks, long since converted to pretty staff cottages, and is decorated with well used tack as a nod to the buildings’ earlier history. On cooler days, the corner fireplace warms visitors and adds to the ambiance. The tea rooms seats 30 inside with another 25 in the exterior fountained roundel.

We offer a range of delicious cakes, enjoyed across the world by our many visitors!

Additionally, a selection of scones served with jam and clotted cream are always available along with, the quintessentially English, crumpets and hot toasted teacakes.

We offer a full selection of fine teas and coffee served in an equally charming array of eclectic and delightful porcelain. Alternatively, other cold and hot beverages include bottle green squashes and rich hot chocolates.
