An abundance of people have already had an up-close experience with these enigmatic creatures, who will now graze the grounds until the first week of June and make for a memorable bank holiday or half-term visit for families, groups and couples.
Visitors can also enjoy the adventure playground, and the Castle Pantry and Terrace Café return to serve up a range of delicious, locally-sourced lunch options.
Visitors to Sudeley are among the first in the UK to see the awe-inspiring sculptures grazing on the North Lawn and scattered in herds and groups across the 10 formal gardens, which mimic the Hills of Southern India where the elephants were first created by tribal communities for the leading conservation Elephant Family charity.

These monumental art experiences, inspired by the Land Art movement, create an enigmatic scene against the backdrop of the Cotswold hills.
