Many thanks to Neil and Deb for allowing me to be the first guest in their apartment, and for agreeing on such short notice. I found the listing and contacted them when I was less than an hour away so I knew that I was taking a chance that they would reject the booking. I decided to go ahead because the apartment sounded perfect, and it was! The apartment is very tastefully decorated and inviting. It’s a comfortable space for working, or for relaxing after a day of exploring or if the weather spoils your plans. There’s plenty of storage for your belongings in the bedroom. The bed is very comfortable and the linens and bath towels are simply luxurious. The WiFi connection is excellent. Although I didn’t make full use of it, there is a full kitchen with everything you need to prepare your own meals. The ceiling is low, which was not an issue for me but may be for really tall people. The lowest points are probably 6’4” (192 cm) or thereabouts with the door frames a little less. The house is on the main village road which gets a bit of traffic passing through during the day but almost none at all in the evening and night time. There are no shops in the village, but Upton upon Severn, Tewksbury, and Malvern are only minutes away by car. The surrounding farm country is great for walking, and Neil has information about things to see and do in the area. While waiting for a response to my request to book, I stumbled upon The Drum and Monkey, which turned out to be just down the road from The Old Post Office. You’ve got to go to The Drum at least once. The two meals I had there were outstanding. Neil and Deb were great hosts, eager both to share information about the area and for constructive feedback about the apartment. I wish them the best, and I highly recommend “The Old Post Office”!

A perfect retreat to quiet countryside! Jenny and Michael were delightful hosts, answered lots of questions and sent us to a perfect, local pub where we met more wonderful people and sampled the local brews. The entire space was clean and warm with lovely views of the fields and grazing sheep.....loved it, loved the hosts!!!!

Really nice accommodation which suited us perfectly for going to a wedding nearby. Host even transported us back and forth. Only gripe was with the water power in the shower, it stated it wasn't a power shower but could do with something to make it have a bit more 'omph' . Lots of hot water though.

Linhay is in a wonderful location with fabulous views over fields to the hills. Bright, spotlessly clean and spacious. Jenny was v helpful and friendly. Only reservation is the shower, which is a bit weedy and no bath!

A very warm welcome and appreciated the extra goodies we found in the fridge. We wanted a weekend away from it all and this lovely property hit the mark; beautiful spot, great walks, very relaxing. A very enjoyable weekend, thank you

Lovely house in idyllic countryside. We were welcomed with some lovely homemade cake and a friendly greeting. House was comfortable and cosy with lovely views. We were also offered breakfast and fruit which was a lovely added extra, thank you.

We arrived slightly later than planned for a wedding nearby but Jenny was very accommodating and quickly dropped us off at the venue. The flat / apartment was perfect for three of us to stay in, very cosy (warm, not at all small!) and with the bonus of some lovely home-cooked food in the fridge to soothe our hangovers in the morning. The views from the flat are breathtaking - I wish I could wake up here every Sunday! I'd thoroughly recommend a stay at Linhay Farm.

Lovely little farmhouse, great amenities

Linhay farm was wonderful. The standard of the rooms and finish were brilliant. Jenny's attention to detail was fabulous and the welcome package of food was a god send. I highly recommend to anyone intending on staying in the area.

Charlie's place was fantastic, perfect location to unwind and relax with some good walks nearby - 40 minutes from the Malvern Hills and the Cotswold's. It was such a treat, the hot tub was amazing and the property is so stylish!! Charlie's place had all the small things you need when going on a weekend away, tea, coffee, foil for sandwiches - she had thought of everything. One thing to be aware of beforehand - the first heat of the hot tub is free but after that it costs £5 per bag of logs to heat. Also it would have cost us £20 extra to check in before 4pm.

Lovely place and for a great price! Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the yard.

The Yard is the perfect getaway- comfy, spacious, beautifully decorated, well-equipped for your every need, with the most breathtaking views! It's lovely and secluded, but Charlie is on hand for anything you might need. We came for a weekend retreat and really had to tear ourselves away! The hot tub was great once we got it going- patience is required in chilly March (it took a few hours and regular fire-stoking) but it was so worth it!! Thanks again :)

You will not be disappointed with this beautiful Airbnb. The place is actually nicer than the photos and super clean and comfy. Charlie the host is lovely and made sure we had every we needed during the stay. The hot tub is a must and well worth getting in after a nice walk up the Malvern hills

Stayed here with friends for a weekend getaway. Lovely house. Very cosy and close to some nice walks and pubs.

Outstanding property in a beautiful location! The house is modern, clean and Charlie is a wonderful host. Always a text away and leaves you to your own devices.

Perfect weekend away! Charlie was a brilliant host, welcoming & so helpful. The Yard was beautiful, clean, quiet, relaxing and the log burning hot tub was amazing! Thank you so much! Looking to come back in the summer already!!

The host canceled this reservation 23 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Lovely stay at the Cowshed. Beautiful room and surroundings. Nigel was very helpful and gave us lots of great tips on things to do during our stay. Would definitely stay again. Thanks Nigel :)

Fantasticly ran by two very good hosts. Clean, beautiful and secluded. Amigo the dog is also the best greeter! Fantastic value for money with views to die for! 10/10

Cosy and comfortable.

A beautiful location and the apartment more than comfortable. It was lovely to hear the owls at night and see the woodpeckers about during the day! Highly recommend! Great walks all around - really is the perfect get away. Nigel was a fantastic and welcoming host. Amigo was also an absolute cutie!

The cow shed was the perfect get away from the city. A very spacious accommodation with every amenity needed for a weekend break and more. Within walking distance are a few tranquil country pubs and a 10 minute drive can get you into the surrounding villages which had great markets to explore. Nigel was a great host, welcoming us upon arrival and made everything very simple for our stay.

The cow shed is a great little place, nicely equipped and immaculately kept. The location is stunning, right on the doorstep of some of the most beautiful countryside and easily accessible walking.

Beautiful accommodation in a beautiful area, views out every window. Immaculately clean, perfect facilities and an excellent host - very quick replies to enquiry and emails. Situated in a lovely, quiet area, a short drive to Malvern and surrounding areas. Perfect for a weekend getaway for 1 or 2 people! Highly recommended if you are visiting the area!

The Cow Shed is real gem, much better than the pictures show and there's a definite tardis effect when you step inside. We loved the location, the breakfast supplies were very high quality as were everything else. Coming from an urban environment, we both found the tranquillity very restful and enjoyed exploring the surrounding area, the views form the top of the hill are amazing. Nigel was a very good host and made us feel very welcome without being intrusive.

Fantastic location, very quiet and peaceful. Would definitely recommend to anyone after a rural get away!

A wonderful rural retreat tucked away down a quiet country lane two great pubs within walking distance the property offers spacious modern accommodation with a fully appointed kitchen lounge double bedroom with double shower room great views of the Malvern Hills

My time at Eldersfield was a joy from start to finish. The pictures on this sight only offer a glimpse of the beauty surrounding the sight, sitting out in the field you truly feel reconnected with the land and surrounding nature. The host Rosalind and her husband (oh, and the three sheepdogs who were regular visitors, they have a lot of love to give) made me feel truly welcome and nothing was too much trouble during my stay. I would highly recommend this destination to anyone seeking some peace and tranquillity.

Great place. Check-in was merely a hello and then we were left to our own devices which was what we wanted. The tipis are very large and with a full bathroom just steps away, it could not have been better. It rained while there but we remained dry and snug inside. It was a great weekend with lots of nice towns nearby (Tewkesbury, Ledbury etc).

Beautiful setting, lovely hosts and good sized tipis! My partner and I had a wonderful time and will hopefully be returning to visit again!

the children's first reaction was wow. Seeing the tipis made them very excited and they couldn't wait to get out of the car and explore. The tipis and the caravan were really good and the paddock had been set out really well to allow you to have lots of different spaces. Rosalind made us feel really welcome and was very helpful about advice on the local area. We had a fantastic stay and were really impressed and would love to stay again.

As described rustic basic tipis, clean caravan and basic awning. Great welcome and excellant location and ideal for a group of friends or family who want to get away from the hustle and bustle. Plenty of room to play ball games and generally have fun. The open campfire was amazing and well needed this time of year. Beware of the dogs they are very friendly but cheeky thieves too:)

We had a fantastic stay at the tipi field and will definitely be returning again.

With the option to have the whole paddock and the wood fire and BBQ this is a wonderful way to unwind and relax in the heart of the countryside. The perfect hostess on a working farm. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic time at Eldersfield Tipis. The family were very welcoming and we bought firewood for both nights of our stay. There is a bbq and table and chairs so we were able to make the most of the good weather. The shower block and toilets were very clean. During the days we made the best of the surrounding locations heading into Tewkesbury. We would love to stay here again.

Simon left us to it, but was quick to respond to direction enquiries etc. Lovely thanks.

We had a wonderful weekend stay in Welland, Simon was a great host who explained everything we needed to know about the tent / facilities and the surrounding area. The tent was even better than we expected, the beds were especially comfy and the many spare blankets and heater were great for getting warm of an evening. We had beautiful weather so eating out on the decking was a bonus and sitting round the chiminea of an evening. There is plenty to do in the surrounding areas from walking the Malvern Hills to some lovely National Trusts. Overall a wonderful stay, would recommend and we will be back! :)

Lovey place, grate reception would recomend

Simon was a really great host, the place was amazing, super clean and cozy, loads of facilities, just a perfect place to get lost in the middle of the countryside, pure nature and beautiful vibes! We will definitely be back :)

We stayed for a weekend and couldn't have asked for a better place to base ourselves. The scenery was stunning, the amenities were modern and well looked after, and the yurt itself was comfortable and perfectly sized for our group. Simon was a fantastic host – both in the greeting and tour of the facilities we got, as well as the lovely welcome basket. The yurt's veranda was perfect for sitting with a bottle or two and relaxing. Could not recommend more highly. If staying here, definitely drive if you can, as it is out of the way with few public transport options – but in return, you get a peaceful, picturesque getaway.

We stayed for one night with friends (4 adults total) and 3 toddlers/babies and we had an excellent experience! Simon was very helpful with providing baby equipment and answering our questions in advance of our stay, and directing us in when we couldn't find it (I recommend printing off directions in advance as mobile reception is patchy!). The safari tent was very welcoming and spacious and well equipped. We erected an additional small tent to give us a bit more space but we could have all squeezed in with no problems, and Simon provided an extra camp bed too. The shared separate kitchen and bathrooms were extremely well equipped and easily accessible. There was a lot of space for the children to play but we also felt very private away from other guests. The setting was quiet (a party in a neighbouring field was just audible but I'm guessing that was a very rare example of any intruding noise at all) and very pretty and overall we had a lovely night's stay - would thoroughly recommend to others!

Great safari tent, very well equipped. We only stayed a single night but would happily return in the future for longer. Simon was really helpful, a pleasure to deal with.

A beautiful quiet spot with amazing tents that the family loved ' just like the tents in Harry Potter' Thank you, we had a wonderful stay

Chris's place is lovely. It's very spacious and well presented. The location was perfect for us being nice and secluded but also easy driving distance to local pubs (amazing food!) and scenic walks across the Malvern Hills. Communication with Chris was always quick and easy and we would highly recommend his place for any future visitors.

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at Chris's place! The annex had everything we needed and was beautifully kept. The location was great for exploring the Cotswolds and there was some lovely places to eat really close by! We would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone looking to stay somewhere lovely that's close to the Cotswolds!
