It's beautifully decorated, very comforfortable and charming with all the exposed beams, but has all the modern facilities that you need not only for a short stay but for longer stays as well. There are information leaflets to hand as well as instructions for all the gadgets, which came in very handy. The owners. who by the way are the nicest people you could wish to meet they made us feel so welcome were on hand if you needed but also very unobtrusive. The lovely sun trapped garden is just perfect to sit and relax, there is no traffic noise and there are dark skies. So peaceful.

"The property was absolutely stunning."
The owners have put a lot of thought into the renovation, the only downside was the leather settee, as the weather is getting cooler it wasn't the cosiest to sit on. We took some throws with us so we put those onto settee before sitting down. The welcome pack is a lovely touch. The owners are on hand for anything you may need (everything we could have wanted was provided so we didn't need to call on them)
Dear Alana, Thank you so much for your generous feedback. We have taken your comments on board concerning the leather sofa and the new plush throws are now in situ. Property Owner

About the location
WELLAND
Malvern 5 miles; Worcester 13.5 miles; Gloucester 17 miles
The thriving village of Welland lies south east of the magnificent Malvern Hills in Worcestershire, with a Post Office, village shop and its very own family-run vineyard, producing award-winning wines which can be purchased directly from the owners. Castlemorton Common provides many lovely walk and cycle rides, part of which is a designated SSSI due to its vast array of wildlife, flora and fauna. The beautiful Worcestershire town of Malvern dates back to the Bronze Age and is situated on the eastern side of the dramatic Malvern Hills. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the hills form a nine mile range of ancient rock, which offers 100 miles of footpaths and bridleways with natural springs and long distance views in all directions. The town holds antiques fairs, WI country markets, farmers’ markets and many auctions throughout the year, as well as the Great Malvern Food Festival in June. The Malvern Theatre welcomes productions from the West End and the Royal Shakespeare Company. Fishing and river cruises are available nearby and there are National Trust properties and gardens to visit in the area. Malvern has many individual shops, cafes, art galleries and restaurants, a luxurious spa, and is also home to the Three Counties Showground. Malvern is the home of the Morgan car, which makes this area popular with enthusiasts. The pretty town of Upton upon Severn lies on the banks of the River Severn and boasts a variety of delightful 17th century buildings and attractive shops, including The Pudding Shop, traditional inns and cafes and its very own museum. It also plays host to many annual festivals, including Jazz, Folk and Blues Festivals, as well as the Sunshine Music Festival. This small, thriving town has its own marina, a vineyard and a well-stocked farm shop at the local fruit farm, plus the town’s medieval church, which is now a Heritage Centre, is topped by a striking 18th century cupola, known locally as The Pepperpot. The picturesque Forest of Dean, with its range of attractions, is only 30 miles away, and the cathedral city of Worcester and waterfront city of Gloucester are also close by.
