Byways

Malvern 2.4 miles

Part of the Madresfield Estate, a historic, hidden gem, and resting in the pretty village of Madresfield, Worcestershire, Byways Cottage is a tastefully restored and beautifully decorated timber-framed, semi-detached property sleeping a maximum of 7 adults and 1 child; with plenty of charm and an interesting history, it provides a sanctuary for relaxation and is the perfect place for connecting with the outdoors.

Suited to groups of family and friends, its location is perfect for exploring the surrounding beauty of the Madresfield Estate, with numerous dog-friendly public footpaths on the doorstep, allowing some superb walks with spectacular views of the Malvern Hills which are also a popular destination for both road cyclists and mountain bikers alike.

For those wishing to explore further afield, the counties of Shropshire and Gloucestershire including The Cotswolds are also within easy reach.

Authentically rural, the property sits adjacent to a working dairy farm; it offers spacious, welcoming and luxurious accommodation, a generous and secure pet-friendly garden with a discreetly placed wood-fired hot tub, and ample parking.

The separate games room with sofas, beanbags, Smart TV, dartboard and indoor football table, provides the luxury of an additional escape, popular with families.

On entering this delightful cottage, you will find a spacious hall and an impressive beamed sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove, plush furnishings and ample seating, ideal for the perfect night in.

After preparing a meal in the contemporary and well-equipped kitchen, guests can gather in the serene dining room or enjoy an alfresco dining experience on the patio.

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

Two of the double bedrooms have en-suite showers and there is a spacious family bathroom adjacent to the third double and single bedrooms. Guest comfort is key and therefore bathrooms have underfloor heating, all beds feature luxurious ‘Hypnos’ mattresses and will be made up with premium bedding ready for your arrival.

Alternatively, guests can unwind 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.

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, including the Estates very own restaurant, The Madresfield Butchers and Grill.

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/biking on the Malvern Hills, an AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty).

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