Katherine Parr, said to be the Henry the VII’s favorite wife, is buried on the sweeping grounds of history-rich Sudely Castle in the picture-perfect village of Winchcombe. The tomb of one-time queen isn’t the only attraction: the Castle boasts nine world-renowned gardens, the most famous of which is the Queens gardens, named in honor of the four British monarchs who admired the hundreds of varieties of roses that grow at the castle. Lucky (or not so lucky) visitors might spot the ghost of Queen Katherine who is reputed to roam the grounds of Sudeley, admiring the gardens she once loved so much.
