We have just spend the most wonderful two days at the Old Rectory!!! I cannot recommend this place highly enough. We were made to feel most welcome, whether we were having tea in the elegant drawing room, relaxing in our huge room, or sampling the delicious breakfast and dinner.

I stayed at the Old Rectory two years ago with friends and loved it then but have recently spent the weekend there with an old friend, the two of us spending our time catching up in the huge drawing room in front of a roaring fire.

The food and... More

The property is in the beautiful village of Cradley just outside of Great Malvern (10mins drive), and my husband and I found it the most relaxing weekend away. (We recommend the walks from the property into the countryside, beautiful farm land and you feel very away from the world). The property is a beautiful old house with lots of character,... More
