Location



Located in the highly regarded area of Birtsmorton (a small rural village, benefiting from local Church, primary school and pub), only approximately three miles from the village of Welland with it's local shop. The property also sits in the catchment area of the well regarded Hanley Castle High School. The cultural spa town of Great Malvern and the thriving riverside town of Upton upon Severn are also close at hand (approximately six miles away). Malvern offers a comprehensive choice of facilities including shops and banks, Waitrose supermarket, the renowned theatre and cinema complex and the Splash leisure pool and gymnasium. Upton upon Severn also boasts an excellent choice of amenities and a particularly busy social scene as it is well known for its summer music and water festivals and for its riverside marina. From here there is also direct access to the M5 and M50 motorways. The larger cities of Worcester and Gloucester and the town of Cheltenham are all within fast commuting distance.



Birtsmorton is situated in one of the most beautiful areas of south Worcestershire. It is most famous for its common land which dominates the neighbourhood and provides the perfect spot for those who enjoy walking or are in the equestrian world. This is most definitely riding territory. Less than ten minutes away by car are the foothills of the eight mile range of the Malvern's which provide some of the most dramatic scenery and interesting walks in the Midlands.
