  • "What a beautiful cottage!"

    We loved the decor, cosiness and space within the property and enjoyed the location on the outskirts of Madresfield with lovely local walks and within a few miles of Malvern. An improvement would be to add a mirror and a hairdryer to the 3rd bedroom and a few more mugs in the kitchen.

    Dear Wendy We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Lavender Cottage and thank you for the feedback. We hope to see you again. Property Owner

  • "Stayed at Byways last year with a bigger party but Lavendar Cottage didn't disappoint."

    Welcome pack last year included sausage and bacon which was so good we purchased some to bring home. No bacon this year which if you are showcasing your produce is a little short sighted, as you now can purchase direct from the butchery. We placed an order with John who was really helpful and collection easily arranged, it is exceptionally good produce. Noble Isle toiletries were a nice touch. Plenty of good walks locally for the dog. Always enjoy the hot tub, its relaxing after a nice long walk. Would definitely recommmend and we will be back again.

    Dear Debbie Thank you very much for your comments and for all of your feedback, we enjoyed having you here. I am glad you met John the Butcher - such a character, and we really hope you enjoy the Madresfield meat. Hurry back, you made us smile! Property Owner

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Lavender Cottage."

    It is extremely clean and comfortable and in an ideal spot to enjoy the Malvern Hills and surrounding area. The hot tub was a bonus. Thank you for the welcome pack too. We had a small issue with one of the showers. The response was quick and friendly and the issue dealt with promptly. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to friends and family. I hope we can return soon.

    Dear Angela We are grateful for such positive feedback and that you enjoyed your stay. It was also good to hear that you enjoyed the hot tub which enjoys pleasant views of the hills beyond. Looking forwards to having you back! Property Owner

  • "Lavender Cottage was a perfect place to stay for a week for our family of 6 adults and 3 babies under 9 months."

    We would highly recommend it. The location was also great and we made the most of visiting different places near and far. Sadly the hot tub was not fully working with bubbles but it was still warm and we used it nevertheless. We would definitely choose it again.

    Hello Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, much appreciated. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Sadly our supplier, Baltic Hot Tubs has let us down and we are awaiting a repair but, none-the-less, we are glad you still used it, it has such a great view of the hills. We hope to see you again.

  • "WOW..."

    Absoluty stunning! The cottage is beautifully decorated, lots of thought has been given to each room. Bedrooms are spacious, we had the best night's sleep all week, it's just so peaceful and quiet. Lots of space to relax downstairs and everything you could need is provided in the kitchen. The garden is a fantastic size, which our 2 dogs took full advantage off. The hot tub is a great to relax in after a long walk up the beautiful Malvern hills. Such a peaceful stay, feels like you are in the middle of nowhere but everything you need pubs, shops are not far away. The welcome pack was amazing! Again very thoughtful of the owners. We did not want to leave and would love to stay again. Highly recommend.

  • "We had a fabulous time at your beautiful property and would highly recommend it to family and friends."

    The facilities were spot on and we enjoyed every element on offer. Internally, the property was very tastefully furnished with attention to detail. We also enjoyed the garden and hot tub (though we did have some niggles with the hot tub they were addressed promptly). The property was very well located and we found there was plenty to do in the area. Thanks for everything including the fabulous welcome hamper….

    Thank you so much for your feedback and we are so glad you enjoyed the stay, we do aim to provide a little sanctuary for our guests and ease of stay and enjoyment are important factors in our holiday let portfolio so apologies for the hot tub niggles, I can confirm the engineer has been called out. Your review and recommendation to others is much appreciated and we hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

  • "We just spent a week at Lavender cottage and we were not disappointed."

    The place was very spacious and equipped with everything you need. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of hanging space for your clothes, full length mirrors and power points where you need them when drying your hair. The garden was a nice sunny space with plenty of seating dotted around and was a good secure area for our dog. The welcome pack of milk, bread, jams cookies and coffee was a nice touch we were very thankful for. We really did enjoy our stay and would consider booking again as a week wasn't long enough to explore the area.

    Thank you so much for your review. We always take pride and pleasure when we hear that our guests have had such a special time, holidays are important and we strive to provide the right environment and facilities to enable the best of stays. We hope to see you again. Property Owner

  • "Delightful cottage, very quiet, good combination of old and new features, could not get the hot tub to light properly which was a bit disappointing but otherwise everything was very good, one negative point we had was that the house instructions we were sent were for Byeways, so we had the wrong key code ."

    Thankyou so much for your feedback and we are delighted you enjoyed the Cottage. We are sorry you received the wrong key code instructions from Sykes, unfortunately this has happened a couple of times, however, so pleased you managed to get in and enjoy your break!. Property Owner

  • "The cottage is very spacious and beautifully refurbished."

    I have marked it down on two points as although the important things (kitchen, toilets, bathrooms) were very clean, the edges of the floors and skirting boards were very dusty and “bitty” and needed vacuuming. A cottage that is this expensive should be spotless. The sofa was quite uncomfortable with a very low back. The beds were comfortable with nice bedding. The garden was brilliant for our dogs, huge and secure. A welcome pack of milk and the owner’s own farm sausages and bacon was much appreciated. Would definitely return.

    Thank you very much for your feedback and we are sorry that you found the skirting boards and floor edges to be below par - we would have been very happy to come round and address the issue immediately. Great to hear that you would return and we hope to see you again. Property Owner

    Lovely spacious rooms and comfortable beds. Garden was a joy-large, well kept and very well enclosed for dogs and children. Kitchen well equipped. The hot tub does take longer to heat up than the instructions suggest so bear that in mind. A lovely stay which will be our “go to” option when we next stay in the area.

    Thank you very much for your feedback, we have strived to ensure that our holiday cottages offer a high standard of home-from-home comfort for our guests. We are also so pleased to hear that you may be back, until then... Property Owner

The property

Malvern 2.4 miles.

Resting in the pretty village of Madresfield, near Malvern, Worcestershire, Lavender Cottage is a newly restored, fully refurbished and beautifully decorated timber-framed, semi-detached property with plenty of charming character and history dating back to the 17th century.

Welcoming families or groups of friends, its location is ideal for exploring the local area of Worcestershire and the surrounding counties of Shropshire and Gloucestershire including The Cotswolds.

Authentically rural, the property sits adjacent to a working dairy farm, offering magnificent views of the Malvern Hills, abundant parking, spacious and luxurious accommodation, and a wood-fired hot tub in the generous, child and pet-friendly garden.

For large family and friend celebrations, Lavender Cottage can also be hired together with its 4-bed sister, Byways Cottage and No.29 Madresfield, another 3-bed cottage which is a very short walk away.

On entering this special property, you will find a hall/boot room and then a cosy, beamed sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove and plush corner sofa, ideal for the perfect night in.

Alternatively, guests can rewind and enjoy a luxurious soak under the stars in the wood-fired hot tub, sensitively situated in the sweeping back garden, taking advantage of the views of the Malvern Hills.

After preparing a meal in the contemporary and well-equipped kitchen, featuring patio doors and views of garden and hills beyond, guests can gather in the cosy dining room or enjoy an alfresco dining experience, taking advantage of the outdoor garden furniture and generous patio.

As the night draws in, after a day’s exploring or walking, a peaceful night’s sleep will be had and in one of three cosily decorated upstairs bedrooms.

The master twin room has an en-suite shower room with underfloor heating and all beds feature comfortable ‘Hypnos’ mattresses, made up with premium bedding ready for your arrival.

Lavender Cottage, Madresfield, provides a sanctuary for relaxation and is the perfect place for connecting with nature; ideally situated to discover the local countryside, guests can take advantage of the many local public-footpaths and walks.

Malvern and the surrounding villages are a short drive away for those times when cooking is not an option, offering a good selection of pubs and eateries, convenience stores and supermarkets.

Great Malvern, historically reputed for its spring waters and public schools, also offers boutique shops, a local history museum, unique abbey, and easy access to walks on the Malvern Hills themselves such as Sugarloaf Hill, the Worcester Beacon and British Camp, situated within the local AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty).

The historic city of Worcester is also close by, offering independent shops, museums, art galleries, a cathedral and riverside walks.

Amongst numerous other destinations, guests can also visit the many popular events held at the Three Counties Showground such the RHS Malvern Spring show, Slimbridge RSPB reserve, Croome Court National Trust and The Knapp and Papermill Nature Reserve.
