A special Christmas in difficult times!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas stay with you. Given the COVID-19 restrictions, you could not have done anything better. Excellent food & wine, a good selection of other drinks, and great, attentive & friendly service from your excellent staff. All correctly socially-distanced, which made us feel safe too. Comfortable room, with all amenities & a great view.

The direct access from the grounds onto various walks in the Malvern Hills is a real bonus. We'll be back!!
