Property details

Breathtaking views of the Cotswolds and the Severn Valley from a well-located hotel high in the Malvern Hills - includes breakfast, and optional dinner
  • A real rural retreat: Steeped in history and surrounded by beauty, The Cottage in the Wood is an idyllic Georgian stately home house and cottage dating back to the 1700s. High up in the Malvern Hills, guests can reconnect with nature and celebrate the good stuff in life; good food, deep sleep and dramatic views. The hotel enjoys sweeping 30-mile views of the Severn Valley and the Cotswolds – voted by a national newspaper as "The Best View in England”.

  • Award-winning dining: With three AA Rosettes, the 1919 Restaurant has beautiful Cotswolds views and serves breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner to a backdrop of the stunning Severn Valley - along with an award-winning wine list. Packed lunches are supplied for wild country walks and for drinks, the bartender can mix you your own cocktail creation.

  • Stroll and sightsee: Local attractions near the hotel include the picturesque town of Malvern, the Morgan Motor Company factory, ample walking routes with direct access from the hotel, and Upton-upon-Severn – a charming riverside town just five miles from The Cottage in the Wood.

How to get there
