Description

“Buttercups” at Midway is a delightful, quirky annexe situated in Kington, a peaceful village in the depths of the Worcestershire countryside. Kington is situated between Worcester and Stratford on Avon and is 3.3 miles from Inkberrow, the home of The Archers and in close reach of the ancient market town of Pershore with its excellent amenities. It is ideally placed as an escape for couples or a family of four and is less than an hour’s drive from Birmingham Airport.

The property is in easy reach of the Cotswolds, Bredon Hill and the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. In the immediate locality there are many footpaths and walks through woodland and open countryside and the area is popular with cyclists. The owners are able to offer guided walks and cycle rides on request, subject to availability.

Kington is close to a range of sports facilities including Rivers, an excellent Leisure Centre and pool in Pershore, the open air Lido at Droitwich, tennis courts at Inkberrow, sailing, kayaking, paddle boarding and archery at Aztec Watersports near Pershore and also at Upton Warren near Droitwich. Redpoint Climbing Centre in Worcester and Go Ape in the Wyre Forest are both in easy reach. For wee ones there is a fabulous soft play centre six miles away in Feckenham.

Within an hour or so attractions include the Cotswold Water Park, the West Midlands Safari Park, the Cotswold Wildlife Park, the Cotswold Farm Park, Little Owl Farm Park, the Severn Valley Railway, Drayton Manor Park and The Snowdome at Tamworth.

For those who enjoy exploring historical sites there are many places of interest nearby including Shakespeare’s Birthplace in Stratford, Warwick Castle, The Commandery and Cathedral in Worcester, Avoncroft Museum of Buildings and National Trust properties at Croome Court, Hanbury Hall, Greyfriars in Worcester and Coughton Court. Shoppers are in easy reach of excellent centres such as Cheltenham, Touchwood at Solihull and of course Birmingham - all 25 miles from Buttercups. Locally the Jinny Ring Craft Centre is only 5 miles from Buttercups and in the village of Kington there is Simply Alpaca and a stained glass workshop. The owners are happy to arrange workshops with these and other local crafts and arts facilities by prior request.

The property is also an ideal location for visits, for example to Cheltenham Races, NEC events, the Three Choirs Festival, Worcestershire and Warwickshire Cricket matches and Worcester Warriors Premiership Rugby.

Buttercups is set in the grounds of the owner’s home. The annexe has its own patio area in the orchards, a great spot to sit and have a coffee to start the day. There is also a hot tub on the patio where you can relax with a prosecco and watch the stars, late into the evening.

Inside the property is light and bright and offers flexibility and fabulous interiors. The kitchen diner is a contemporary spot where you can sit together and enjoy a meal. The kitchen is equipped with an electric oven and two-ring hob, microwave, fridge, dishwasher and microwave and provides all home comforts. If you prefer to eat out there are three pubs and a tea room within 1.5 miles. Spend time relaxing in the cosy sitting room equipped with a Smart TV and board games for your entertainment in the evenings.

At the end of the day the cottage offers two lovely bedrooms including a ground floor super king size with an en-suite shower room and a first floor twin, or double on request, which has its own en-suite shower room.

Children are very welcome at Buttercups. There is a large outdoor area and the property has outdoor games and activities. Cot, highchair and boxes of toys for different ages are available on request.

Buttercups at Medway is a lovely cottage.

It was comfortable and well presented with lovely views. We had a warm welcome from Ann on a very windswept and rainy day. The welcome gifts were appreciated.

We had the most amazing stay at Buttercups.

Extremely relaxing with such a lovely homely feel. Anne and Stewart are two of the loveliest people you could ever wish to meet and Callie the dog was friendly and completely adorable. I'm usually weary of dogs but Callie won me over in no time at all! Buttercups is very comfortable and there has been obvious thought put in to what guests will need. Anne and Stewart were just wonderful; it was a pleasure to meet them and to chat about anything and everything! They had lots of local knowledge that they were happy to share and which we enjoyed hearing about and then going off to explore. They even printed off information for my history-mad daughter so that she could read up on the history of the area and its connections. We were sad to leave but we came home relaxed and smiling and looking forward to a future visit. Thank you so very much Anne, Stewart and Callie.
