The Three Counties showground is only a mile away. It hosts many great events including The RHS Spring Garden Show, The Royal Three Counties Show and The RHS Autumn Garden Show to name but a few.

Venturing slightly further afield, Malvern is a historical town with a busy town centre with many independent shops and boutiques, eateries, and entertainment facilities. With Waitrose and independent shops in the town centre, and Marks & Spencer, Specsavers, and Boots in nearby Malvern Retail Park, the national shops are well represented too.

Malvern Theatre is a renowned performance centre for some of the nation’s best plays and houses a cinema too. Malvern Splash is a popular leisure centre and swimming pool.

This means that within a few miles you could spend a delightful day at the RHS Spring Garden Show at the Three Counties Showground, drink delicious coffee in an independent coffee shop or  enjoy an evening at Malvern Theatres watching a play or the latest film. 

The Malverns Hills are a wonderful area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offer many opportunities for walking with spectacular views. If you enjoy a game of golf, there is Worcestershire Golf Club 4 miles away. 

Nearby is also the delightful riverside town of Upton-Upon-Severn famed for its festivals and celebrations. It has a rich musical offering with everything  from Jazz to Blues, or you can just pop by to enjoy a drink in one of the many traditional pubs overlooking the river.

Worcester is 10 miles away and is home to a beautiful cathedral, and other historic buildings, a popular racecourse and the county cricket ground. 

For travelling further afield, Hanley Swan is just over 7 miles from the M5 and there is a train station in Malvern with direct lines to Birmingham and London. If you are going abroad, Birmingham and Bristol airports are less than an hour away. These connections make travelling a breeze.
