Oakly Park is a hidden gem on the outskirts of Ludlow, just 25 minutes’ drive from The School House B&B. The park is home to much of the livestock that's reared for the local produce that you can buy at the nearby Ludlow Farmshop. This is a really peaceful walk that leads you through the park and surrounding farmland on the outskirts of Ludlow, across the River Teme at Dinham Bridge towards Ludlow Castle, St. Laurence’s Church and the market square.
Ludlow really comes alive in June with the brilliant Ludlow Fringe Festival. The festival, which in 2024 runs from Thursday 13th to Sunday 23rd June, is a feast for the senses with an eclectic mix of Shakespeare, comedy, dance, theatre, workshops, carnival and magic. This year the theme is Love, with performances of Romeo & Juliet at Ludlow Castle being one of the highlights.
