"Lovely and peaceful stay in a fabulous well appointed and cosy lodge."
It did everything that we expected, warm, fantastic beds and loads of hot water. Location was great. Very relaxing. A great location to explore a great part of the country.
-
"The property was everything we hoped for."
Very well maintained, in beautiful surroundings, quiet and so welcoming. Jenny left us some delicious welcome gifts. We would definitely recommend and hope to come back soon Thank you Jenny

"We had a wonderful stay here."
The location is perfect, it feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere but you’re actually really close to amenities. It was really peaceful and our toddler loved being able to play in the garden and see animals in the field next to us.

"The location was lovely and safe for our 3year old grandchildren who enjoyed running around in the spacious garden."
We enjoyed watching the sheep in the fields around us and visits by hares,squirrels,rabbits and many different wild birds . The cabin is quite spacious for 4 adults and 2 toddlers with very comfortable beds. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise and the kitchen included a fridge freezer which was a great help when catering for all the family. It was a great pleasure to meet Jenny, our host, who made us feel very welcome. We visited Malvern for the country show, West Midland safari park. The Wyre Forest Gruffalo trail and the Little Owl Farm Park. We will certainly be visiting again. Highly recommended for all age groups

"Absolutely perfect stay, beautiful location and everything you need"

"Lovely, comfortable chalet in a tranquil location surrounded by wildlife, fields and birdsong."
The owners are nearby and are on-hand should there be any problems. The welcome goodies were much appreciated. Everything that we needed was there - we cooked every evening and the pans, utensils, etc, were perfect. We had lovely weather most days and made good use of the decked area to eat our meals. Beds were extremely comfortable and we slept well. The location is perfect to get into Worcester and visit nearby National Trust and English Heritage gardens / properties. As two of us have mobility issues, the property and ramp access into it worked well.

"The owners are so lovely and friendly."
We were lucky enough to see a lamb being born which was incredible. The view is lovely and the accommodation is impeccable.
-
"Top Style Orchard was such lovely place for 6 of us to spend Christmas together, including 2 small children."
Cosy & comfortable, it had everything we needed with good quality fixtures & fittings. We slept soundly in great beds, despite Storm Gerrit's best efforts at disruption. Jenny was welcoming and helpful, providing a high chair and extra food storage for Christmas Dinner, as well as a farm tour in the rain. Remote & quiet but with easy access to Worcester & its surrounds by car. One of the best holiday lets we've ever had. Thank you.

"Brilliant, not what we expected."
The location was perfect, quite with great views from the cabin. Thank you
-
"Top Style Orchard was the perfect choice for me, my bestie and our 4 boys."
The accommodation was spacious, comfortable, clean and well equipped. The beds were super comfy which made sleeping an absolute dream. Waking up to views of nature in the orchard was amazing, and the boys had plenty of space to let off energy! Jenny and Martin were the perfect hosts, answering any questions we had. We even arranged a tour of their working farm and the children got to help feed the calves and collect the eggs from the chicken coop. I am sure we will be back to stay again!
-
"The lodge is better than it looks."
Everything was provided and we loved the welcome pack. We loved how quiet it was Jenny was lovely and our granddaughter loved the visit to the farm which is a must for anyone. If you want to get away from it all I can’t recommend this highly enough.

"Second stay at Top Style Orchard, a year to the week since our first stay."
..must tell you something about the place! Love the comfortable lodge and it's quiet location. Facilities described are exactly what you get and fulfil all our holiday requirements; cannot fault the accomodation, cleanliness and preparation; thank you Jenny. Sitting outside on the decking with a drink in the warm twilight watching night fall, the view of woodland and orchards through an advancing low level mist, listening to and spotting the wildlife (deer, foxes, hares, numerous types of birds... and bats), simply wonderful and relaxing. Will definitely stay again. Thanks again Jenny for another great stay.
-
"Cabin was very clean, beds comfortable and showers excellent."
Location is along a narrow country lane - we found it easily with directions from the owner but would recommend arriving in daylight! It is lovely and quiet and secluded in a rural setting and an easy few miles drive to Worcester and nearby attractions including several good National Trust properties. It is also only 15 minutes away from the Curradine Barns wedding venue in Shrawley which was the reason we chose this location. It may be worth noting on the website that the fridge is small with only a small icebox so don't arrive with a large meal supply for 6 people. Plenty of shops and eating places in the area. The owners were friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our visit to their farm further along the lane, which is a bonus feature of this property.
-
"So glad we found this fantastic place, suited our needs perfectly."
Already looking to book again later this year and next year.
-
"A well equipped, comfortable and peaceful place to stay in an orchard."
A great base for walking and exploring the area with our family. Jenny was quick to reply to our questions and always helpful. The welcome pack was much appreciated. Thank you, Jenny.
-
"Excellent location."
Top quality from the soap and washing up liquid to the comfortable beds. Lovely welcome pack. Had a tour of the farm which was enjoyed by the adults and 3 grandchildren - even the 17 year old. Would highly recommend.
-
"Lovely cottage in a beautiful rural farm setting."
Jenny was a great host, from pre-arrival communication to bread, milk and cookies on arrival, thank you. The cottage is clean, warm and comfortable for our weekend. Lots to see and do with great recommendations in the information file, with Top Barn our favourite farm shop! Go and stay you won't be disappointed.
-
"A really lovely cosy lodge."
Spotlessly clean with everything you need for a comfortable weeks holiday. The setting is beautiful with a view of trees out of every window,and so quiet (no traffic noise at all). Good quality outside furniture overlooking a safe area for children to play without disturbing anyone else. Although the property is in a rural location it's within easy reach of Worcester with plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants. Would highly recommend this property and would love to return when we can.
-
"Top Style Orchard - can't fault it."
The accomodation was spacious and comfortable, extremely clean and well prepared with all the facilities you will require - the "welcome pack" is a lovely touch. The situation is stunning, next to a Victorian orchard, mostly surrounded by woodland with spectacular views across the orchard and adjacent fields. And it's peaceful: more often than not all you can hear is the countryside devoid of all human made noise. Enjoy the silence whilst you watch the wildlife. I'm sure we'll book again Do so yourself or you'll never know what you're missing.

"We had a wonderful short break at Top Style Orchard with our daughter and grandchildren."
The immaculate lodge is in a fabulous location with plenty of space around it for the children to play. They loved being shown around the farm, feeding the chickens and collecting the eggs. Our welcome pack was a lovely extra touch. Thank you Jenny for making our stay so memorable.
-
"We spent a wonderful week at Top Style Orchard, such a peaceful location, perfect to get away from it all but with easy access to Worcester, the river Severn and the Malvern Hills."
The accommodation was spotlessly clean with everything we needed and plenty of room for all of us, including two teenagers! The owners were so helpful with information in advance and during the stay - we loved the tour around the farm, even in the rain - and the welcome pack of bread, eggs and local cider was a real treat.
-
"Top Style Orchard was a very clean and comfortable home for the week."
We spent a lot of time outside, enjoying the lovely area to sit and play in. We would love to go back one day.
-

"A lovely peacefully retreat, with all amenities & creature comforts."

"We had a lovely stay at Top Style Barn."
It was a beautiful and peaceful location. The accommodation was lovely, had everything we needed and very clean. The welcome basket was lovely. Our hosts were great and gave us and children a tour of the farm. An experience my boys talked about for days. We hope to visit again soon.
-
"Clean and well maintained property."
It was very kind of the owners to provide a welcome pack in the cabin. Visit to their farm was very good . The property surrounded by green fields is pleasing .It is within a short drive to many scenic places. A short drive to Malvern hills , an area of outstanding natural beauty and visit to beautiful Cotswolds villages made our holiday memorable.
-
"This was a beautiful cabin in a lovely, peaceful spot."
The owner left a lovely, and very welcome, "Welcome Pack". The cabin was very clean, well equipped and thoughtfully laid out. We knew we could contact the owner by phone, text or email if necessary. They were very friendly. We would not hesitate to use the accommodation again when we are next in the area and could recommend it wholeheartedly.
-
"Fantastic secluded break."
Has everything you need to enjoy your break. The owners are really nice and nothing is too much. The welcome pack was a great suprise and went down a treat. The masons arms is only a 45 min walk through the fields following the national trials and our reward was fantastic pub food that was amazing. We will be coming back again!
-
"Top Style Orchard was very clean & comfortable, the setting was amazing far away from the hustle & bustle of modern day life."
A great place to take a walk, or just chill and use it as a base. But still close enough to Worcester to do things. Also added bonus the owners were very nice, and would recommend the farm mini tour :)
-
"I would rate it one of the best, hospitality, cleanliness and facilities first class."
If you like a get away from it all holiday this is for you.
-
"Excellent property."
Secluded but near Worcester, great walking and attractions. Big area put front for playing. Very friendly owners
-
"What a beautiful cottage!"
Very tastefully decorated. We had a lovely sty and enjoyed meeting all the animals at the farm. We will surely be back!
-
"The Lodge was clean, comfortable and well equipt."
The outside space is amazing, brilliant for ball games with no close neighbours to disturb. We were lucky to go at the right time of year to enjoy a tour of the farm, see Sheep shearing, calf feeding and do some egg collecting. The owners were friendly and helpful and provided loads of useful information. The Lodge is based in a lovely area, with lots of days out closeby as well as lovely pubs to eat out. A wonderful, peaceful holiday. Would highly recommend.
-
"If you want to get away from it all, you couldn't ask for a better location."
The perfect place to relax and just take in the fresh country air, and listen to birdsong. The lodge was comfortable and included a lovely big shower. A much-needed and very pleasant break.

The property
Found in the middle of an idyllic orchard on the owner's farm in the Worcestershire countryside is this wonderful timber lodge, Top Style Orchard.
Providing a unique experience for up to six guests, the owners are more than happy to offer an insight into working farm life, with opportunities to meet the animals, collect the eggs and even feed the lambs and baby calves in season!
The farm itself is situated half a mile further along the lane from the lodge.
Step inside this traditional looking lodge, whether from the front decking or via the rear boot room door, with the latter ideal when you're coming in from a muddy walk.
Once you've taken off your coats and boots, head inside to the open-plan living space and discover two large leather sofas to kick back on, with a TV and a little electric stove-effect fire adding a homely touch.
Move across the wooden floor to the kitchen area in the corner, boasting an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge and dishwasher, it's amply equipped for rustling up some delicious dishes.
A fold-out dining table rests near the wall, so you can maximise the space when you need to but still enjoy family gatherings around the table discussing the day's fun as you tuck into your meal.
Each of the three bedrooms benefits from fitted wardrobes and simple, bright décor, along with two single zip/link beds.
The master bedroom features a king-size bed configuration and an en-suite shower room, while the other two are made up into twins and served by the shared shower room, however alternate bed layouts can be requested prior to your stay to accommodate your group.
Wake up to breakfast alfresco on your private decking with furniture to relax on as you soak up the pretty orchard scenery, before meeting up with the owner's to experience a tour around the farm.
Enjoy seeing the inner-workings of working farm life, meeting the animals with the farm home to beef cattle, sheep and free-range chickens, and if you're visiting in lambing season you might be lucky enough to feed some little lambs!
The centre of the village is just a few miles down the road where you'll find a local shop selling fruit, vegetables and essentials, and a village Post Office along with a park.
There are two local farm shops with butchery and delicatessen counters selling local farm produce.
An up to date list of recommended local pubs and restaurants will be provided at the time of your stay.
The surrounding area is scattered with interesting attractions, one of which is Witley Court and Gardens, a lavish ruined mansion positioned within landscaped, formal gardens where you can discover the stories behind the people who lived and partied there and find your way through enchanting woodland and marvel at the large stone fountains.
There are several National Trust properties nearby including Elgar’s Birthplace, Hanbury Hall and Croome Court.
The West Midland Safari Park and the Severn Valley Railway are also less than an hour’s drive away.
Keen walkers can pick up footpaths or bridle paths from the lodge or go slightly further to join the Severn Way or the Northwick Heritage Trail, both running parallel to the river and presenting you with beautiful waterside scenery as well as ample opportunities for wildlife spotting too.
The nearest local nature reserve is Monkwood which is a SSSI and a haven for butterflies in the summer months offering a multitude of woodland walks.
Get dressed up for a day at the races at Worcester Racecourse, the home of summer jump racing and host to 21 fixtures throughout the year.
Head into the centre of Worcester and visit the beautiful Worcester Cathedral, a medieval building home to King John's tomb and the perfect starting point for your exploration of this historic city where you can expect to see old timber framed buildings and flourishes of greenery throughout.
Along with the cathedral there's also The Commandery, a civil war museum in a medieval building and the Museum of Royal Worcester, as well as lots of open green spaces to relax and riverside walks perfect for a picnic.Enjoy a unique holiday to Top Style Orchard on a picture-perfect working farm setting in Worcestershire.
