Ragley Hall, Park & Gardens

I photographed a wedding here in the summer and it was a stunning location! The rooms were incredible and the grounds were perfectly kept. The staff were very helpful too. I would love to go back there!

Just returned home from a fantastic long weekend (Thurs 24th to Mon 28th Aug) at Camper Calling Music Festival. What a great family friendly music festival in a beautiful location. The music line up was fab with Reef, Cast, Badly Drawn Boy, Gabrielle, McFly and Ocean Colour Scene performing (plus lots of others). There was something for everyone to do or listen to at the festival. This was our 3rd year of coming and it didn’t disappoint, apart from heavy showers and a bit of thunder on Saturday. This is such a great music festival if you are into great music, campervans and camping.

I photographed a beautiful wedding at Ragley Hall and wanted to say what a pleasure the staff at Ragley were to work alongside. Having captured over 1,300 weddings over almost 20 years, I've seen the good and the bad, and Ragley is up there with the best, and friendliest! With professional and helpful coordination back stage, it felt like a true team effort to give the Bride, Groom and their guests the best day ever. Here are a few photos from the day! Rich x

Went on the Friday ( 1st day of 3 day festival )
The organisation of getting on and off the site was really well done. The weather was amazing. But unfortunately due to strong winds the wonderful balloons couldn't fly , which of course was to be the main attraction ... so we only saw one or two being partially inflated .. a great shame.
But for everything else , the Lancaster bomber, Spitfire , Hurricane and of course the Euro fighter WOW ! The RAF Falcons parachute team , the bi planes , wing walkers all very exiting ...

It was the airshow last weekend, I loved it, weather was brilliant there was a slight breeze so I was kept cool, but it got colder in the night and we didn't bring enough blankets. Note to self, next year take warm blankets for everyone

Visited Ragley Hall, Park & Gardens for the ABR Festival 2023 (Adventure Bike Rider). Fantastic event, setting, and venue. Approximately 12,000 motorcycle enthusiasts, adventure travellers speaking, famous motorcycle racers, trails, test rides, exhibitions, stalls, bands, high quality food and refreshments for a long weekend in June. Really excellent.

I recently had the pleasure of attending the ABR festival held at Ragley Hall, and I can confidently say it was an absolute blast from start to finish! This festival brought together my love for bikes, thrilling mud tracks, delicious food, live bands, and refreshing drinks, creating an unforgettable experience.

The highlight of the festival was undoubtedly the exhilarating mud tracks. As an avid bike enthusiast, I couldn't resist the opportunity to test my skills on the challenging courses. The tracks were well-designed, offering a perfect balance of excitement and safety. The adrenaline rush I felt while navigating through the muddy obstacles was unmatched, and it was incredible to witness the impressive stunts performed by skilled riders.

Beyond the thrilling bike action, the festival also excelled in providing a delightful culinary experience. The variety of food options available was impressive, ranging from delectable street food to gourmet delights. I savored mouthwatering treats from various food stalls, each serving up unique and delicious dishes. The festival organizers ensured that everyone's taste buds were catered to, making it a gastronomic adventure in itself.

To add to the festive atmosphere, live bands took the stage, filling the air with infectious energy and fantastic music. The lineup featured talented local and international artists who entertained the crowd with their electrifying performances. The combination of bikes, music, and enthusiastic spectators created an electric atmosphere that had everyone dancing, singing along, and thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Of course, no festival experience is complete without refreshing drinks to quench your thirst, and the ABR festival had that covered too. The beverage options were aplenty, with a range of refreshing drinks available, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. It was refreshing to sip on cool beverages while taking breaks from the action, enjoying the lively ambiance and mingling with fellow festival-goers.

The festival grounds were thoughtfully organized, providing ample space for attendees to explore and soak in the vibrant atmosphere. The organizers had clearly put a lot of effort into creating a visually appealing setup, with vibrant decorations and engaging activities scattered throughout the venue.

Overall, the ABR festival at Ragley Hall estate was an extraordinary experience that catered to every aspect of my enjoyment. The thrilling mud tracks, mouthwatering food options, high-energy live bands, and refreshing drinks created a perfect blend of excitement and entertainment. The festival showcased a true celebration of bikes and brought together like-minded individuals in a festive and welcoming environment. I can't wait to attend next year's edition and create even more incredible memories."

We had our wedding at Ragley Hall and it was amazing. The venue is amazing and the team is great as well. You are not just getting a venue with Ragley but a whole team to support you before and on the day. They might be slight more expensive than other venues however it is worth it. The team set up meetings with all the providers and help organise the day. We couldn't have done it without them. :)

🏛 Amazingly maintained since it was built in 17th century, Ragley Hall is a large, exclusive venue hosting a plethora of events. This time it's walls and scenic green plains became a home for yet another massive gathering. This time though, paradoxically, it turned out to be a match made in heaven. Several years running Adventure Bike Rider Festival (ABR) hosted over 11 000 bikers from all over the world. 🏍

🅿 While the events are not on, you are welcome to park nearby and admire the wonders of the hall and gardens.

🚻 Facilities are available on site so simply ask the staff (surprisingly always with a eye's reach) for directions

🧑‍🌾🦋🏛 Main attractions will include the aforementioned gardens that majestically stand over the endless fields of grass and the hall interior itself. Based on the online info, you can visit Thursday to Sunday and some bank holidays - refer to the website.

🏨 There's also a hotel on site if you feel like treating yourself to some luxury

ABR Festival was fab, the grounds of Ragley Hall are vast so countryside all around beautiful Hall and gardens. 👍

Absolutely superb venue for weddings & other events..
I conducted a Hindu Wedding ceremony.
Very friendly & helpfully staff & management.
Ample of parking

The grounds are pleasant with walks and gardens. The house tour is limited to 22 people at a time, so you have to book it at the house when you arrive. The tour guides are very knowledgeable and will answer your questions. The house is very interesting and has a good deal of history, each room has its own story. The afternoon tea in the restaurant is very good and offers a good selection. There is ample parking, which is good especially when events are being held.

Absolutely amazing grounds and hall. So worth the visit. Although ground can be uneven and some hills still very suitable for all ages.

We visited when a classic car show was on, it rained but we still had a lovely visit, the house is closed but the gardens are fantastic. Well worth a visit, it cost £15 each to get in.

I visited Ragley Hall as the Camper Calling event that had been delayed a year by covid was held in its grounds. We enjoyed three days of live music and entertainment, a ton of food and drink all in a family friendly atmosphere. The whole family had a great weekend.

The most well prepared and most welcoming festival I've ever been to ..highly recommended

Have visited a couple of times now for a weekend of camping during an event held here. Field is fairly flat but does get muddy if raining a lot. Plenty to do when here. Visit the hall, walk along the lake or even do a bit of boating.

Clasic ibiza was insane! Never fails year after year. Best event of the year round here.

Great place well organised. We went to go see the West Midlands Air Show great displays highly recommended.

Had a lovely time at Ragley Hall. Their stumpery gave me some good ideas. The grouping of different plants was a delight to see. The garden showed a winter garden need not be dull and boring, this garden had colour and some good plants for structural delight. Well worth a visit. Shame it only opens one weekend a year.
