Guide To Evesham

Lying on the River Avon, and at the centre of the famous fruit and vegetable growing area, the historic market town of Evesham is a pleasure to visit at any time of the year - but especially in the Spring, when the blossom on the fruit trees turns the landscape into a medley of colour. Discover the horticultural history of the Vale with a visit to the 14th century Almonry Heritage Centre, where you can also learn about the slaughter of Simon de Montfort in The Battle of Evesham in 1265.

Relax by the river, by taking a boat trip or watching one of the many exciting events that take place throughout the year; rowing regattas, River festival, illuminated boat parade, band concerts - you will be spoilt for choice!!
