About this property

Barnard's Green 1.7 miles. Nestled in the quaint village of Guarlford, just a short distance east from Barnard's Green, Worcestershire, rests this extraordinary, detached, five-bedroom holiday home, Thornbury. With an immaculate, stone-clad exterior, large front and rear gardens with luscious lawns, ample parking on a private driveway, and superb positioning to the nearby Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this exquisite property welcomes a large family or group of sharing friends seeking a relaxing, escape to the West Midlands in the most fabulous of dwellings.

In warmer months, step through the bi-fold doors and into the rear garden, where you can kick back and lounge on the outdoor furniture whilst the chosen pitmaster lights up the barbecue - the perfect spot for whipping up a tasty alfresco feast. When you're finished wining and dining, retreat to the sitting room, where you and your loved ones can relax by sticking a film on the TV whilst you're kept warm by the crackling embers of a woodburning stove.

Make your next trip to Worcestershire deluxe, by booking a stay at Thornbury.

The village of Barnard's Green is located close to the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This lovely community, which lies between the imposing metropolis of Worcester to the north and Gloucester, is arguably best known for its past as a spa town during the 19th century, when travellers would swarm to the village to "take the waters" due to their supposedly beneficial effects on health. Today, tourists may take in a live performance at the neighbouring Malvern Theatres, have some family fun at the Malvern Splash Leisure Complex, wander the tranquil grounds of Priory Park, which has a pond and a playground, and even brush up on local history at the Malvern Museum. A Co-Op, One Stop, and Premier convenience store are all located in the centre of Barnard's Green, giving visitors plenty of options if they need to stock up on food or other necessities. A lot of intriguing places and sites are also conveniently close to Barnard's Green, including The Morgan Experience Centre, Little Malvern Court & Gardens, The Walled Gardens at Croome Court, and the RAF Defford Museum. The Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum and The Commandery are only a couple of the must-see sights in Worcester, where you can spend the entire day.

    We will be back! We celebrated a Hen Weekend & had such a great time. Plus the pub down the road, the Plough & Harrow is lovely to. Thanks for all your help Katie.

  • Helen

    Beautifully furnished, very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Ample parking space. Excellent pub half a mile away (no pavement to walk there though). Good pavement all the way into Malvern, 2.5 miles. Some lovely walks from the door across rolling fields and the Malvern hills are 4 miles away and beautiful, with gorgeous views.

  • Ellie

    The house itself is stunning and there really is all of the facilities and amenities you could ask for! I would definitely stay again and will be recommending to everyone. Thank you so much Katie for the most wonderful weekend celebrating my 30th we will definitely be back!
