  • "We have just spent an amazing 6 nights at The Croft."

    The owners, Sally and Steve are warm, welcoming and friendly and the fresh eggs, milk, bread, butter and cakes when we arrived were a lovely touch. The pictures don’t do the place justice- there were lots of WOWs when we first walked in! Despite most of the week being wet and miserable, we had an amazing and relaxing stay with lots of time in the hot tub. We also discovered a brilliant game in the well - stocked games and book cupboard - Sequence - which my husband insisted we bought on the way home

    Steve and Sally were great, friendly and welcoming . They were around if you needed anything but left us alone when we needed quiet. Their dogs were lovely and the two pigs were gorgeous . We had the run of the farm and could wander round at will. Could not fault it or them.

    Lovely location so peaceful and quiet Its a pity that the view from inside the cottage is minimal because of the small window and door Only negative was the bed which we found uncomfortable as we could feel every spring Everything else was fine and we really enjoyed the Malvern show and surrounding area

    Hi Sue and Jerry, Thanks for your feedback. We can only apologise for the uncomfortable bed - we had absolutely no idea and are thankful to you for bringing it to our attention. The bed and mattress have now been replaced. Regrettably, we cannot change the door or windows in the Croft due to planning restrictions. Property Owner

  • "We absolutely loved staying at the Croft."

    Others have said it but it's true - the pictures don't do it justice. Gorgeous setting and the space for our dog was brilliant and much appreciated. Everything is of the highest quality at the Croft. Easily the best place we've stayed. Sally and Steve are lovely hosts and on hand but the Croft is still very private. Shop, pub and takeaway 5mins in car and no distance at all to Malvern. As soon as we have dates sorted, we'll be booking for next year (but with less rain please!).

  • "This is our second visit to the Croft, it was in our view better that the first, but nothing had changed within the Croft, my Wife is over the moon with the Croft the location and especially the Hot Tub!"

    ! I feel exactly the same, Sally and Steve are incredibly genuine people, who are prepared to help with anything and everything, and at the same time they never intrude, we were fortunate to be there when the Farmers Market was taking place, highly recommended, little bits of everything. In honesty the pictures do not do the place justice, it really is a very very special place, long walks round the lake and through the woods, ideal if you have a Dog, also a separate field which is closed off so any Dog can run free, will we go back, try and stop us !!!!! If you stock up on food you really do not have to leave the Croft, as it is based for some really nice walks.

    Steve and Sally, the hosts were particularly attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The Croft was very comfortable and well equipped, the hot tub was fantastic with a southerly aspect across the lake and fields with views towards the Malvern Hills. We would definitely recommend staying at The Croft

  • "The perfect break!"

    What a little gem of a property. Myself, my wife and our little dog stayed at The Croft to celebrate our 1st year wedding anniversary. The house is surrounded by areas of outstanding natural beauty which made great walks, with a welcome stop at a local pub for lunch. Malvern hills, wye valley and Cotswolds wildlife park and Zoo were just a few of the highlights. The house itself was absolutely outstanding. The level of care when we arrived shone through (from little chocolates by the bed and milk in the fridge to an anniversary card). The owners live next door and are the kindest loveliest people you could ever wish to meet! They do not intrude on your holiday at all. The grounds surrounding the house are quite difficult to put into words - a private forest, pond/lake and wonderful farm animals. Our little dog was really in his element here and we were too! The hot tub was a welcome way to end the day. Highly recommend staying here! It is a great place to unwind. We also purchased some lovely meat from the owners farm which is absolutely delicious. Thank you Sally and Steve!

    The pictures don’t do it justice. This is a luxury home with fantastic finishes. The location is great if you just want to chill - walks round a private woodland for our little dog Poppy absolutely made her day. Sally and Steve are great hosts, so friendly and welcoming. Log burner is amazing, we were toasty all weekend. Will definitely return.

    The accommodation is perfect - from the comfort of the bed and sofas after lovely walks, to all the facilities, kitchen set up, amazing shower and of course the hot tub with fabulous views. Thanks so much to our wonderful hosts who made us so very welcome and shared this wonderful spot with us. Really appreciated the use of an empty paddock for some off lead fun for the pup. There are great walks using local footpaths, or jump in the car for a short drive for hilltop or riverside walks. Local pubs in area are excellent and so is the local Chinese takeaway if you don't feel like cooking. Highly recommend this area and The Croft.

    !! believe me when we say the owners are very nice down to earth people that have tried their best to give you a relaxing place to really enjoy your holiday, everything you could wish for is to hand, and if by chance you do need more you only have to ask the owners, Sally and Steve, wonderful people, yes it is a working farm, but from where the accommodation is you would never know, you are right by a lake which can be fished, (60MTRS) there are tree lined wooded walks, very good in the heat for our Dog Bella, and very very quiet.

The stunning accommodation is beautifully furnished and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. But the hot tub just takes it to another level with uninterrupted views of the countryside and the silence broken only by birdsong and the lambs in the next field. We definitely will be returning.

    Hi Philip, So sorry to hear that you would not return due to our having dogs. Your wife did inform us on your arrival that you are terrified of dogs due to a bite suffered when you were a child. Our dogs are very well trained and socialised with other dogs, people and children (we have 4 grandchildren under 6 yrs). They are never unsupervised on our farm at any time. You are the first to comment about our dogs in the 2 years we have been in business. We feel we must defend our position as already we have received calls from future guests concerned about your comments as it does suggest our German Shepherds (Woody aged 10, Taggie 3 and Peggy 12) are a problem which they certainly are not.

The property

A wonderful bolthole resting on the outskirts of the pretty village of Leigh Sinton and surrounded by the majestic slopes of the Malvern Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Croft is an all-ground-floor, detached holiday accommodation on a smallholding farm, ideal for a couple seeking a tranquil place to call home as they explore the wonders of this part of England.

Enter into the spacious bolthole and be welcomed into the open-plan living room, where the characterful woodburning stove and unique chandeliers complement the contemporary furnishings.

The range of quality appliances are arranged in a contemporary assortment, which are certain to entice a spot of home-cooking, and the sleek bar makes a great spot for popping open a bottle of wine, whilst dinner simmers on the hob.

Once dinner is ready, settle down at the formal dining table before you light up the woodburning stove and relax into your evening.

Sink into the plush sofa and flick on the TV or simply get lost within a good book before retiring to bed.

The double bedroom and the contemporary shower room concludes the romantic retreat.

Continuing to impress is the private garden area, where a picnic bench offers a space for alfresco dining before you dip into the bubbling hot tub to savour a moment of relaxation and soak up the rural views of the cottage’s surroundings.

Alternatively, immerse yourself in your surrounding further by exploring the fishing lake, where a thatched hut offers pretty views, explore one of the many walks and bridleways from the doorstep or enjoy a spot of clay shooting tuition.

If you can tear yourself away from this wonderful base, head into the centre of Leigh Sinton village, where you will be delighted to find a shop for picking up essentials, a takeaway and a pub serving sourced produce and a great selection of wines and cask beers.

For a larger selection of amenities, travel to Malvern, which is home to individual shops, cafes, art galleries and restaurants and a luxurious spa.
