Tips from locals
Built in about 1632, Boscobel House, originally a timber-framed farmhouse, was converted into a hunting lodge by John Giffard of White-ladies. Excellent day-out.
Back to the English Civil War. Charles II took refuge here, while on the run from the protestant troops. See the priest's hole and the Royal Oak.
A great place to visit. You can walk the Monarch's Way and see Whiteladies Priory and the lovely village of Tong with its beautiful church.
