About this property

Nestled on a historic courtyard, The Old Carriage House is a beautiful, end-terrace house on the outskirts of Callow End, Worcestershire. With two bedrooms sleeping four guests and off-road parking for three cars, the house welcomes a group of four friends to stay for a rural escape. Take in the picture-perfect setting of the old carriage house before settling into your home-from-home; the inside is contemporary with stylish décor to create a homely atmosphere, such as the sitting room with a cushioned sofa and armchair to sink into and catch up on your favourite show on the Smart TV. Rustle up home-cooked meals in the spacious, light kitchen/diner, well-equipped with amenities to please the designated chef, with seating for all four guests to gather around to toast to your rural retreat. Completing the ground floor, a minimal bathroom is a peaceful setting to relax amongst the bubbles or rinse off with a hot shower. Unpack and unwind in one of two bedrooms at The Old Carriage House, including a double with a handy en-suite shower room, and a twin zip/link, which can be a super-king-size on request; both bedrooms have storage space and sloped ceilings for a snug setting to curl up under the sheets. A large, rear garden invites guests to dine alfresco on the patio or spread a blanket on the lawn for a picnic in the sunshine. Close by is a local convenience store and The Blue Bell Inn.

A little further in to the heart of the village is The Old Bush Inn offering excellent home cooked food. Situated alongside, you will find a charming cafe/deli offering good coffee, home made cakes and local artisan products - perfect for your self catering requirements. Both are perfectly situated next to the Old Hills conservation area, which is renowned locally for its scenic walks. Pull on your boots and take one of the many lovely walks along Three Choirs Way or Monarch's Way through the idyllic surrounding countryside. Jump in the car and journey to Malvern, where an Outstanding Area of Natural Beauty offers popular walks and outstanding views, fuelled by the charming, 1813 hillside St Ann’s Well Café. A short journey north of The Barn lies Worcester, a bustling city packed with history; be charmed by the gothic cathedral, soak up heritage in the city's gallery and museum or step back in time in the timer-framed, 18th-century Tudor House Museum. Gather your friends for a splendid stay at The Old Carriage House, with the best of rural escapes and city attractions within reach.

Callow End is a beautiful village located approximately 3.5 miles from the charming town of Malvern. Two great hamlet pubs and a Post Office with a small shop can be found in Callow End. The Three Choirs Way and Monach's Way pass close by, and there are many wonderful hikes to be had from the settlement. Malvern is located on the eastern slope of the majestic Malvern Hills and dates back to the Bronze Age. A fantastic vacation destination that can be enjoyed all year.

    Spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Excellent communication with Caroline, the host. We would highly recommend The Old Carriage House.

  • Susie

    We'll equipped for what we needed. Only issue for us was the busy road. We live in a quiet village so this was very noticeable.

  • Martin

    The milk in the fridge and the chocolate muffins were a very nice touch.
