    “A visit to The Hideaway has become an annual treat for us.”

    It's a lovely retreat from the world, with all amenities; spotlessly clean and thoughtfully and comfortably furnished by the lovely and welcoming owners, who live in the main house and who are always available if needed, but who never intrude. With its local store and pubs, there really is no need to venture out of the village if you're in the mood for a relaxed, quiet break from the world, but is ideally located for visits to all major attractions and towns should you feel the need to ...

    It's a lovely retreat from the world, with all amenities; spotlessly clean and thoughtfully and comfortably furnished by the lovely and welcoming owners, who live in the main house and who are always available if needed, but who never intrude. With its local store and pubs, there really is no need to venture out of the village if you're in the mood for a relaxed, quiet break from the world, but is ideally located for visits to all major attractions and towns should you feel the need to explore. Extremely highly recommended.

The thriving town of Eckington lies in a loop in the River Avon in beautiful countryside of the Vale of Evesham in southern Worcestershire, close to the border with Gloucestershire. The town boasts two lovely country pubs, a well-stocked shop and numerous lovely walks in all directions with the Wychavon Way and Millenium Way both passing close by. The riverside town of Pershore boasts a magnificent Norman Abbey, Georgian architecture and a good range of shops and eateries. The surrounding countryside is famous for fruit growing and market gardening, whilst just south of the town is Bredon Hill, providing home to the remains of an Iron Age Hill Fort, as well as Roman earthworks and a number of ancient standing stones. The pretty country town of Upton upon Severn lies on the banks of the River Severn and boasts a variety of delightful 17th century buildings and attractive shops, including 'The Pudding Shop', along with traditional inns, cafes and its very own museum.

An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Malvern Hills offer 100 miles of footpaths and bridleways, and form a 9 mile range of ancient rock. The Great Malvern Food Festival in June is well worth a visit, as are the many events at the Three Counties Show Ground and the Malvern Theatre, which welcomes productions from the West End and the Royal Shakespeare Company. There are many National Trust properties and open gardens in the area, as well as outdoor activities to suit all abilities and the many unspoilt towns and villages of the Cotswolds.
