We were let down at the last moment and desperately needed accommodation in the area and were so, so lucky that we were recommended Woodstock Lodge.
This is an immaculately appointed holiday let in a gloriously beautiful part of the county. There were footpaths only a few yards from the front door that led us onto the Suckley Hills, a much quieter option to the busier Malvern Hills. We were within striking range of a number of National Trust properties to which we went. (Berrington Hall, Croft Castle and the perfectly idyllic Brockhampton Hall.) We did not manage to get to the English Heritage sites of Witley Court or Stokesay Castle. These we will definitely get to, on our return visit to Woodstock Lodge.
The accommodation is quite perfect and spotlessly clean. The bed was just sublime, far move comfortable than my own. Excellent wi-fi, large flat screen tv, fridge, freezer, washing machine and, now, even a dishwasher which was fitted the week we were there. We were only able to get this lodge because it was a maintenance week and therefore not theoretically available to rent. We thank the helpful owner (Paul) for being so understanding.
I took time to read the reviews in the book at the Lodge and it is quite apparent that this is a relatively new venture which has hit the road running. Every review talked in glowing terms about the cottage and the owner's parents who were so helpful.
This is the perfect holiday let for a couple. All too often the small holiday lets can be rather sad and gloomy. This is a modern, extremely comfortable cottage which will not disappoint.
We did our shopping at the village shop but more so in Bromyard, only a 10 minute drive away. There are no shortage of pubs in the area and even two micro breweries.
We will definitely return in the New Year and hopefully have the sunny weather we had in our relaxing stay at Woodstock Lodge,
