  • "It was a multi-generational, two dogs holiday!"

    Everyone was catered for to the highest standard. Such a beautiful house with an interesting history. It was our first visit to Malvern, it definitely won't be our last!

    Hi Helen, Thanks for the great feedback! So glad to hear all generations and indeed the hounds had a good break in Malvern. Nick Property Owner

    Had a great weekend at the Greenways. This cottage got everything you need for a big group. Kids had many rooms and games to play with. Cottage was nice and warm. Great place if you are looking to explore Malvern Hill. Many walks from the back of the cottage. Highly recommend it.

    Hi Surinda, Thanks for your feedback, really pleased that you and your families had a good time both in Greenways and in Malvern. Looking forward to seeing you again. Nick. Property Owner

    I have stayed in holidaycottages.com and air bnb properties and none of them have matched Nicks professionalism and support pre/during and post stay. Would recommend the property to anyone who will listen. Thank you Nick

    It was exactly what we needed for our large family reunion. Has everything that you need. We had a large Sunday roast for 10 and it even had an electric knife for carving the meat! Plenty of space for the children to play and a vast array of toys and games

    Hi Michael, Thank you very much for your positive feedback. Hope to see you in Malvern again soon. Best regards Nick. Property Owner

  • "Gorgeous property, well equipped with everything you could need for your stay."

    Lovely decoration throughout. Beds really comfortable. Kitchen is lovely and bright with plenty of accessories. Hob tub was clean and always hot when used. Please be aware there are lots of steps, so if you have people with mobility issues this isn’t the place. Though there is a down stairs bedroom, the bathroom has steps up to it from this bedroom. There are two lounges which was great for the kids to have some free time away. There is a Morrisons local within a 10 min walk which was great for the essentials. We all throughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it.

    Hi Lisa, Thank you so much for the feedback, and we're really glad you enjoyed your half term break away with your family at Greenways. Hope to see you again soon! Nick. Property Owner

  • "We have just returned from a wonderful long weekend getaway at Greenways."

    Prior to, and during our stay Nick has been a very considerate host, even making a special trip to drop of a new teapot! Greenways was ideal for our group of five lady walkers, the location is perfect as there are some super walks that start straight from the back door. The property is spotlessly clean, and very warm and cosy. We especially enjoyed the upstairs/ downstairs lounges. The kitchen is a great communal space for chilling over a glass of wine, it’s fully equipped to a very high standard. The owners have done a great job in renovating Greenways, I can imagine it being a very popular choice with family and friend groups.

    Thank you very much for your feedback Dawn! Glad you and your friends had a good time. Hope to see you in Malvern again soon. Nick. Property Owner

  • "Altogether very comfortable and well equipped though we missed a teapot and extra tea towels ."

    Weather was warm during our stay but we did wonder if condensation might be a problem in winter months . The hot tub was a very welcome extra !

    Hi Helga, Thanks for the great scoring you've given Greenways, and your feedback that you found the property comfortable, well equipped and that your group enjoyed the hot tub. We like to hear people have enjoyed their stay. We previously discussed your suggestions and a tea pot will be added along with additional tea towels. Any feedback like this that improves the property is welcome. Finally, I can assure you that as a result of the extensive work to Greenways (extending to re-roofing & insulating, and a brand new heating system) there is really no need for you or any future customers to wonder about condensation being a problem during any months. It is warm and comfortable. Our interest is in keeping the property in impeccable condition. Thank you again, Best regards. Nick. Property Owner

    It was clean and very well maintained, with all the amenities that you could possibly need. The information sent by the owner was really detailed and extensive, and the whole process was easy from booking to checking out. A lovely, characterful property, which was well located to make the most of the surrounding countryside and Malvern itself. We thoroughly enjoyed and plan to return.

  • "For starters, this is the best equipped kitchen of any holiday rental in which I have ever stayed!"

    The owner has thought of everything and the appliances are top quality. We did struggle a bit with the induction hob though. Everyone remarked on the comfortable beds. The only criticism of the sleeping arrangements was the lack of hanging space in the ground floor room and the mysterious addition of a piano. The property was well maintained and beautifully clean and the showers were simple to use and very welcome after a day's walking. We loved being able to walk out of the back door and through the garden to the paths up into the Malvern Hills and other places. The weather was kind to us and we sat out in the garden space at the front of the house enjoying a glass of wine. The hot tub was a big success. Parking facilities are good. I would certainly recommend Greenways for group and large family holidays. The area is simply beautiful and there is a range of good pubs and restaurants a short drive away.

    Hi Rosemary, Thank you very much for your positive review. I'll have a look at what can be done about some clothes hanging space in the ground floor bedroom. Hope to see you in Malvern again soon. Best regards Nick. Property Owner

Be welcomed indoors by the sleek, well-equipped kitchen/diner, with a handy pantry in tow, where you can rustle up and enjoy delicious meals with ease.

Flick on the Smart 3D TV in the sitting room, with the woodburning stove alight through colder periods, where you can lounge upon the plush corner sofa for an immersive evening, whilst the second-floor houses a further sitting room, perfect for escaping to with a good book.

Bask in your exclusive surroundings by instead spending the evening alfresco, where you can prepare a barbecue and socialise, before enjoying a dip in the hot tub or toasting to your getaway upon the terraced patio.

About the location

MALVERN

Ledbury 7 miles; Worcester 10 miles; Hereford 23 miles.

The beautiful Worcestershire town of Malvern dates back to the Bronze Age and is situated on the eastern side of the dramatic Malvern Hills. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Malvern Hills form a 9-mile range of ancient rock, which offers 100 miles of footpaths and bridleways with natural springs and long distance views in all directions. The town holds antiques fairs, WI country markets, farmers’ markets and many auctions throughout the year, as well as the Great Malvern Food Festival in June. Malvern has individual shops, cafes, galleries, restaurants, a luxurious spa and it’s own micro brewery. It is also just a short drive from the Three Counties Showground which hosts regular events most notably RHS Malvern (May), The Royal Three Counties Show (June) and the Malvern Autumn Show (September). The town is the home of the Morgan car which makes this area popular with motoring enthusiasts. The Malvern Theatre welcomes productions from the West End and the Royal Shakespeare Company. The more energetic can try many outdoor activities including high ropes, climbing and abseiling. Fishing and river cruises are available nearby and there are National Trust properties, gardens and vineyards to visit in the area. The picturesque Forest of Dean with its range of attractions is only 30 miles away, and the cathedral city of Worcester offering modern amenities is a 20 minute drive away.
