We went on a day when the Aston Martin Owners Club had turned up. Lots of great cars parked in the keep. The Castle is extremely interesting and it's history extraordinary. Despite growing up in Gloucestershire, I'd only been once before and a v.long time ago. Brilliant place to visit. Cafe lovely, in the walled garden. Wonderful for an private event.

We enjoyed our visit to Berkeley Castle. Beautiful setting and gardens and the castle rooms were very fine. We got in free with our Historic Houses Card and the kids enjoyed the little historical critter show. There is a playgrounds in the woodland but my kids were probably too old for the playgrounds (age 8 and 9) bit it kept their interest for a few minutes.

An amazing castle that's still lived in by the same family for hundreds of years. A good sized car park, beautiful gardens, and a lovely café/gift shop by the entrance. We didn't book a guided tour, but there were guides at strategic places en route to provide information and answer questions. There are quite a few stairs to navigate, but there are a few blue chairs dotted around if you need to rest. You are allowed to take photos, as long as you don't use a flash. The ticket allows unlimited visits for a year, as long as you agree to gift aid. I'm looking forward to visiting again next year

Living history covering the last 950 years or more of Lords and Crowns activities. An excellent 'To Do' bucket list visit. The guide is excellent. Well worth every penny.

Wanted to visit here since I was a kid 30+ years later was not disappointed. Fantastic artifacts with plenty of historical information. Well kept for a period property in comparison with others I have been to. The guides were all friendly and helpful. I didn't visit the cafe so can't rate that but will visit another time. Plenty to do in the area if want to visit the church next door the Jesters grave who was said to have been murdered in the castle is buried there and Edward Jenner's house.

Visited the area and had no plans. Looked around and fancied seeing a castle type building. Was a toss up between this and another in the area. Glad we chose this one. Easy to get to, directed where to park and made our way to pay admission. Entry was well priced and located in the main castle restaurant and shop. We didn't stay for food but it did look good. Made our short walk to castle and was immediately impressed. Wondered what all the noise was and below the castle in the grounds was a period reenactment happening...sword fighting. For a reenactment is looked pretty real and brutal. Great to see the guys getting into character and getting the crowd involved. I found myself involuntarily shouting and cheering. Much to the wife's embarrassment. We wondered round the castle and grounds. What a great place. Guides were in certain areas to answer any questions. Was like stepping back in time. The castle has an on-site coffee and drinks pod and we also noticed a food van. We didn't have anything but all looked good. I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. If your in the area and want to entertain the kids and yourself, head on down

Such an interesting and beautiful castle and garden. Cafeteria good too with a somewhat different modern menu. I had the baked Camembert with skin on fries sourdough toast and mini gherkins.

Oh my happy place! I love you! I’ve traced my ancestry back to sir Roger Mortimer. I wonder if any of those buried in the church were related to him. But certainly they must’ve been friends with him. I love this church. The wall paintings are pristine and gorgeous. It’s just one of the most beautiful churches I’ve seen. Love the jesters grave outside. All the stone head carvings along the high ceilings are so intricate and lifelike. Gothic wide doors with ancient iron hand forged nails. So old that the rust fuses into the wood which I’d say is ancient oak wood. Stained glass windows with beautiful paintings glass. True artistry at every glance. Lovely stone slabs along the church floor and thank goodness they were not tiled over or repurposed as you saw in too many old English churches. The Berkeley vault is mysterious. Plexus glass let’s you look in but you can’t enter. Four gorgeous lying down life size figures sculpted to likeness of those lying under them. Nice fusion of many eras here. Elements of all centuries which really is a beautiful thing to behold. A kind hearted gesture of having a table food bank there too. The day was scorching hot. I had felt heat exhaustion but once I entered the church I recovered . Very healing place. Very few tourists. I love that

Lovely church larger and finer than expected. Unusual with a separate church tower. Magnificent tombs.

Lots to see if you are interested in funerary monuments, wall-paintings, etc., set in a very pleasant churchyard with interesting headstones and monuments

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” After receiving the communion I feel peace, thank you reverend Steve for the great service,,:) Very happy using their website all the services are updated so we don't miss any services . Thank you Lord for this beautiful place that we can join all together to receive the spiritual food. 🌿🙏

The Berkeley Church is a historical legacy! When you visit this church you can see the immersed love of the people who were in charge of its construction, it is so special, very beautiful and transmits peace, Reverend Steve is very passionate in the sermons on Sundays at 11 am, you really feel the message Heavenly 🙏 the people at church are so kind, the peace you feel after communion is a beautiful gift.:)

Great church - plenty to see and also they have events going on (coffee mornings) It is right next to the Jenner museum

Beautiful Grade 1 listed Church dating back to the 12th century, with strong connections to the Berkeley family, who own their own private burial chapel within the church. Lovely examples of traditional church architecture, stained glass windows and medieval wall paintings. Interesting variety of tomb stones and monuments inside and in the church grounds, many of which themselves are listed. Fascinating and interesting place to visit.

Interesting museum dedicated to the life of Dr Jenner. It's inside his house, with the rooms showing artifacts and information about his life in chronological order. We had an excellent introduction by one of the guides, which set us up with the key points, before we started our visit. Thank you! Outside, in his garden do look for the hut where he treated the local poor for free. Such a pivotal story in the health of people across the World. 😎👍👍👍👍

Learn about how the smallpox inoculation came to be and how quick the antivaxx movement formed and spread.

I visited the Jenner Museum in Berkely (Gloucestershire) on a Monday in June 2025 - travelled by bus (from Thornbury) The cost to get into the museum is £9 - plenty to see on the ground and 1st floor - the gardens are also worth a visit. The guides/staff are informative and interesting

Learning about Edward Jenner in school, I was always intrigued to find out more about him. I was so happy visiting his home and learning more about the smallpox vaccine pioneer! The garden is lovely too, it's delightful to see how medical treatment has changed over the years! Staff inside the house/museum was really lovely too. We pre-booked our tickets for 16:00 but arrived 30mins early, it was no problem to enter the house early. I highly recommend visiting this place!

Very interesting little museum about a genius, who's not so famous in my country, France. The staff was lovely and took 10 minutes to talk about Jenner's life and answer our questions. I recommend.

Excellent with very informative and friendly staff. Had a picnic in the grounds

We hired the house for a private event, the house and gardens are stunning, and made for an amazing setting for a few drinks. The volunteers who work there were incredibly accommodating and the museum itself was full of interesting information about the life of an extraordinary local man who made a huge impact on the planet. The Temple of Vaccinia is there where locals were vaccinated for free. A must see for people interested in medical history / virology, and an amazing setting for a private event.

There was a man who shouted at me and his wife took my piece and threw it as far as she can and my kids were crying and we got kicked out for apparently saying a false report

Tomatojack offers a great workshop with advice from the experts..Linda and Angela. Relaxed sessions, a wide range of materials and a chance to meet like minded people.

Amazing tuition and guidance. Friendly and helpful. Good for absolute beginners to those more experienced.

Amazing ladies

First time here. The positives are that it is a sweet little place. Lovely welcoming staff . Quick service, reasonable prices. Good menu to suit all those with intolerance to Gluten-free etc. Good coffee ☕️ popular so either get there when it opens or try and reserve a table. The negative points are that it was far too noisy making it impossible for any kind of conversation. I appreciate that this you cannot control and that the noise level is purely down to other customers who obviously love the sound of their own voice. The most annoying thing is the door 🚪 such a loud bang upon closing 😑 it made our visit unpleasant. When I mentioned this to a member of staff upon leaving their response was short 😳 "it's an old building" 🏚 old it maybe but implementing a draft excluder around the door frame is not. Would I recommend others to come here yes if you are either very hard of hearing or loud niose does not bother you. I don't think that even noise cancelling headphones would drown the noise out. Will we visit again. Definitely not which is a pity because I would have loved to try the cakes and brownies they looked amazing.

I had visited the Jenner museum and wanted a treat before going home on the bus - great cosy place with friendly staff and excellent prices and service - ticked away a bit but a great find and also toilet is across the alleyway

Came here on a club ride with Gloucester City Cycling Club. Plenty of space to park our bikes in the courtyard. Lovely cup of tea and fantastic breakfast sandwich made with delicious fresh ingredients, top notch 👌🏻

I just wanted to share and shout out to how amazing the wonderful team are here. Over the weekend I wasn't well whilst cycling in the heat and needed some help to cool down. The team were fantastic and couldn't have done more for me. They got me a chair, went above and beyond going down the road to buy me electrolytes and ensured I was OK until my friend arrived to pick me up. Honestly wonderful people who really care - would give them 11 star rating if I could!!

Spent a brilliant afternoon here with a group of friends at a private event. The food and the service was brilliant. I love the cost atmosphere the space has too. I've been before to sample the cakes as well so the Berkeley Tea Rooms are definitely worth a visit!

Lovely place, warm welcome, very nice coffee and cake; slices are very generous and delicious. Also there is plenty of space to park your bike safely outside.

Definitely a 5 star place, so clean and efficient even when they are busy. Delicious milkshakes and the best coffee I’ve tasted in a long time. Small outside space ideal for cyclists and The food is just high end with local produce and yummy cakes. Can’t wait to go again
