What it's like to work here

Reporting to our Welcome Manager, you'll join a small but growing team. In 2024 we're trialling opening 6 days a week during the main season but we open 7 days during school holidays.

Moseley Old Hall is the former farmhouse famous for sheltering Charles II after the Battle of Worcester in 1651. In the 18th-century coach house, next to our orchard, hides our Orchard tea-room. From here the comforting smells of freshly made soup, home-made cakes and scones, probably baked only 30 minutes ago tempt our customers in for something refreshing. Recent land acquisition has more than doubled the size of our estate.
