A historic community with a pre-Norman settlement that has a post office, a village store, and numerous wonderful walks with the Worcestershire Way nearby. English Heritage owns Witley Court, an opulent 19th-century palace encircled by beautiful gardens and stunning fountains. The Hundred House Hotel, a Grade II listed Coaching Inn that has the name because it served as the location for collecting agricultural tithes from 100 districts, is located in the settlement as well. Take a stroll to the top of Woodbury Hill, where you can see the ruins of an Iron Age fort and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Malvern Hills that extend across the River Teme. The well-known village of Stourport-on-Severn, which has an abundance of cafes, shops, and lovely black and white timbered buildings, is nestled along the banks of the River Severn. One of the largest woodlands in the nation, the Wyre Forest spans the boundaries of Worcestershire and Shropshire. A substantial portion of it is identified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, while the remaining portion is listed as a Nature Reserve. Together with a network of fantastic walks and cycle routes, chances for pony trekking, and a discovery centre, the forest is home to a wide variety of animals, including wild woodland birds, moths, and adders. Bewdley, a charming market town nestled on the banks of the River Severn and once referred to as “the most ideal Georgian town in Worcestershire,” is only a short drive away. It provides a good selection of services, including independent stores, antique and craft galleries. The spectacular Malvern Hills offer a 9-mile ridge of old rock, where you can find miles of bridleways that offer stunning, all-encompassing views. The Severn Valley Railway, West Midlands Safari Park, multiple National Trust buildings, riverfront festivals, regattas, and outdoor concerts are just a few of the region’s top tourist attractions.
