The Tractor Shed
Description
If you and your partner are seeking a unique accommodation nestled at the heart of the Worcestershire countryside, look no further than The Tractor Shed, a single-storey lodge situated on the outskirts of the village of Lower Broadheath, just 3 miles from the North West of Worcester.
Cool in summer and welcoming in winter, this property is a uniquely designed, purpose built, all-season, all-weather home from home.
It will cater for your needs all the year round.
With plenty of walking opportunities within the local area, as well as a host of National Trust properties and outdoor activities, The Tractor Shed is an exceptional base for that long-awaited, action-packed holiday with your loved one.
Or perhaps a slow, lazy retreat is more your thing.
In either case The Tractor Shed will serve your needs in style.
Admire your rural surroundings before entering into the open-plan living space, where the vaulted ceilings are a striking element to the room and the extensive tinted windows allow plenty of natural light to fill the space throughout the day, offering privacy at the same time.
Complementing the charm of plywood walls are the contemporary fixtures and furnishings, where a sumptuous leather sofa piled with cushions invites you to relax in front of the Smart TV, while the small dining table is a great spot for a romantic meal, lingering over a bottle of wine and looking across open countryside to the Malvern Hills on the horizon.
The kitchen comes well-equipped for catering, including an electric oven and hob, a microwave and a fridge/freezer, as well as ample preparation space for a picnic on the next day’s hike or a home-cooked dish to enjoy that evening.
As the day draws to a close, close the blinds to create a warm and inviting space and retire to the plush duvet and quality linens that drape across the double bed, where sleep is sure to come easy.
Off the bedroom area, the en-suite shower room boasts a spacious walk-in shower, sleek basin and WC.
Continuing to impress is the exterior of the holiday home, where you and your partner can soak up the sunshine from the decked area with lounging and seating, or come evening, light up the fire pit to roast marshmallows and keep warm as you rest underneath a canopy of stars!
Better acquaint yourself with your surroundings by meandering around the picturesque village of Kenswick, which offers various walks, including the one behind the home that leads to the Cob House Country Park and other magnificent spots.
Get to Lower Broadheath, where you may relax with a drink or have lunch at the Bell Inn.
It is renowned for serving some of Worcestershire's best meals.
The Dewdrop offers a fine-dining opportunity, perfect for those nights when you don't feel like cooking.
The village also has a community shop and is the birthplace of English composer Sir Edward Elgar.
Off to nearby Hallow, a small village resting alongside the River Severn, you will find The Crown Inn, a highly recommended pub, as is the Masons Arms in Martley, while the Chim Doo, a notable authentic Thai restaurant lies a couple of miles up the road in Wichenford and where you can dine in, or relish in a takeaway back at the lodge.
Afternoons can be spent roaming the dramatic ruins of English Heritage property Witley Court; or National Trust owned properties of Croome Court and the Brockhampton Estate; or popping into Worcester where you can brush up on local history by visiting the Cathedral, Worcester Porcelain Museum or The Commandery, an extensive civil war museum set in Charles II’s former headquarters.
Avid ramblers can look forward to discovering the nearby Malvern Hills, boasting a network of paths from gentle strolls along tree-lined paths or the more challenging option of a trek along the ridge to British Camp, with each one offering views of glorious countryside across to the Cotswolds or into Wales.
Bring your loved one to The Tractor Shed to share a memorable break.

What guests are saying
Perfect place to stay, I can't fault this property.
It had everything you needed. Friendly owners and 2 adorable dogs. Spacious private garden to sit outside. Plenty of walks and places to visit close by. A very enjoyable stay here.
The Tractor Shed was just as the picture shows, set in a field with, mostly, peace and quiet.
(There is a road behind the field but not too busy). Furnishings and interior beautifully done and good quality. We were very comfortable the whole week. Air Con a huge bonus in the heat. Emily, the owner very friendly and she is looking to improve the only down side of low light in the black kitchen which made it difficult for us to see in the cupboards and cooker. We would be very happy to stay in the Tractor Shed again and finish exploring the beautiful area it is set in. Definitely recommended. Once the kitchen lighting is improved I would give 10/10.
This property was ideal for a relaxing break with the beautiful location and facilities to sit out of doors to enjoy the views in the sunny weather, as well as being central to explore the local area.
The property was well equipped for self catering and the sofa and bed were very comfortable. Thanks for being great hosts Emily and Lee.
