"This is a superb property - delivering even more than the listing photos."

A lovely place to spend the weekend with everything we wanted. Very close to the centre of town but very secluded. One of the best properties we have stayed in - would highly recommend.

Very pleased you enjoyed Gable Lodge perhaps we’ll see you again Rosa Property Owner

"Gable lodge was spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable to stay in."

We have stayed in many self catering properties and this is probably the best. Well done!

"A lovely large spacious, tastefully decorated house in a great location."

Spent quite a bit of time just sitting in the bay window looking out at lovely views. The welcome basket was much better than other places we have a stayed in. Really enjoyed having a good pub only two minutes’ walk away. Malvern itself is a very nice town with a handy walk to the town centre down Back Lane. Plenty of other towns and cities to visit within easy driving distance. Only one thing to mention – the shower could benefit from having a caddy to put your soap and shampoo in. Would highly recommend this property to stay in.

Thank you for your lovely feedback we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay Gable Lodge with the wonderful view, a good pub near by is even better! Thank you for your comments regarding the caddy it is something that can be looked into. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best Wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"Beautiful cottage at the top end of town."

Very short distance to town, easily walkable or a couple of minutes drive. Very comfortable stay with everything provided. Nothing negative to say as it was well described. Lots and lots of rooms with quirky corners as usual in an older property. We had lots of different weather in a week as it is situated in the foothill area of the Malvern Hills so be prepared for steep inclines and some low lying fog at times. Relaxing stay. Lovely town

Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. We're glad you loved the cottage and enjoyed such a comfortable stay. We hope to welcome you again - hopefully when the sun will shine all week! Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"A beautiful, well-maintained property on a quiet road but still close to the main town."

Very thoughtfully furnished and kitted out, the only suggestion I could make would be to have some storage in the shower room and hanging space in the second bedroom. A wonderful place to base yourself whilst visiting this lovely area.

Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. We're glad you loved the property and the convenient location too for exploring the attractions of Worcestershire. Thank you also for your suggestions which we have passed on to the owners. We would love to welcome you again at Gable Lodge. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

Near Central Malvern, Waitrose, with the Nags Head within a three minute walk having a good restaurant and real beers.

"We luckily stayed during the wonderful heatwave in October."

Gable lodge was a lovely base, clean, very comfortable and welcoming. Lots of little things that made a holiday cottage feel like your home for the week. Would certainly stay again as it was a good base to get into (and out of) Malvern. It's a 10-15 minute walk to Malvern link station and we caught the train to Worcester, leaving the car at home. The parking space is a little tight but we were happy to park outside on the quiet road once unloaded.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your lovely feedback. The heatwave really was lovely, and must have been a real treat to experience whilst at Gable Lodge! We hope that we can welcome you again one day soon! Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

"The accommodation was very clean and comfortable."

Kitchen was well equipped (but only one egg cup!!!). Central for restaurants, can recommend the Nag's Head for real ale and excellent fish and chips. Gluten free selection, including fish and chips, excellent. The road passing the lodge was busy but didn't spoil sitting outside. The parking space was very narrow as warned by the owner, but we won't miss backing our car in and out.

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay overall, and appreciate your comments regarding parking. We hope that this did not leave a lasting impact on your stay and that we can welcome you again one day in the future. Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

"Gable Lodge is a beautiful house decorated and maintained to an immaculate standard."

We were lucky to stay during the late winter snow which made sitting in the bay window even more enjoyable. The house was warm, cosy and equipped with everything you could need; the welcome pack was very generous and gratefully received! We had a fantastic week and were sad to leave. Thank you

"There are not enough superlatives to assign to Gable Lodge where we had a perfect stay."

In real life the Lodge was as classic and lovely as in the pictures if not better! It was beautifully clean, lovingly furnished, and well equipped with little touches galore that added to our stay, the ‘Outstanding’ welcome pack being one. Gable Lodge’s owner was very helpful beforehand which we thank her for. There was adequate parking and we enjoyed being within easy walking and driving distance of the Centre of Malvern and the stunning Council House where our Daughter was married. We will be recommending Gable Lodge to family and friends and will look forward to returning ourselves.

Thank you very pleased you enjoyed your stay Rosa Property Owner
