We can really recommend this hotel as being one of the best that we have ever stayed in . Excellent food, rooms and atmosphere. We were made so welcome and the staff were all so helpful and friendly. This was our 2nd visit to The Cottage and hope that it won't be our last ! More

The Cottage is a family run hotel, with excellent food, helpful friendly staff, great views and direct access up onto the Malverns. A minor quibble is that after a days walking on the hills a better draught beer than the standard Tetley's Smooth would have been appreciated. More

This was our second visit to the Cottage and we stayed in a superior room in the Pinnacles. The weather was kind to us so we had great views. The room was really spacious and the bed really comfortable. The food was excellent and the service from the staff sometimes beyond what would be expected, thank you. We tried to... More

We were let down at the last minute by another hotel and I called the cottage in the wood to be offered a good last minute deal. We travelled with our two dogs, offered a ground floor room as there are just a few they allow pets in. The room was adequate if not a teeny bit outdated, bathroom clean... More

Stayed a night at the Cottage in the Wood with my husband - fabulous place. Staff extremely welcoming and helpful. The room and its views were breathtaking! Everything you could want was provided, even down to binoculars for taking in the view. Not too far off the beaten track but the peace and tranquility was evident. Beautiful room and furnishings....

We stayed in a lovely room in the Pinnacles with a fantastic view across the Severn Valley. The dawn chorus was amazing! A footpath from the hotel grounds took us straight up to the top of the hills, aided by a map supplied by the hotel. The food was really good, the wine list is enormous and the atmosphere is... More

We stayed at one the rooms on the top floor of the Pinnacles. The room was very cozy and extremely quiet, bed comfortable and very clean. We ate in the Outlook restaurant both nights on a dinner, bed and breakfast rate. The food was really good with very good service. The hotel is in such a great location for walking.... More

I recently spent two nights at this lovely hotel and have nothing but good things to say about it. Every aspect of my stay was a delight, the room I had in Pinnacles had a stunning view over the Severn valley and was extremely comfortable with nothing to hear bar birdsong. The food was excellent, a breakfast to see you... More

Firstly, thank you for posting a review and secondly, we are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your first visit to us. It's my son who is head chef and I'm responsible for all those wines but the view comes courtesy from above. Breakfast is often overlooked in hotels as a meal that matters. Lets face it, it's the last... More

My wife and I had stayed at the Cottage in the Wood on one previous occasion a year ago. It came up to our expectations once again when we stayed for a weekend a few days ago. We knew just how well-appointed the rooms were and we could inspect them individually beforehand on the useful website feature. We chose a... More

I'm glad you found the web site useful when you chose your room, it's something we added as a feature a while ago and has had a good reaction from guests. Even more I'm delighted you enjoyed your return visit and found a relaxing, friendly atmosphere. We do try to be the antithesis of a chain/group hotel. Thank you for... More

Booked this room for my 9 year old daughter and myself to stay at on a Friday night before she was competing at the Three Counties show ground. I booked through late rooms. The hotel is situated right up against the Malvern Hills and the views from the dining room are spectacular. The room we had (28) was on the... More

We are delighted you and your daughter found the location conveniently close to the Three Counties Show-ground, we are the closest hotel to the Show-ground. Even more, I'm pleased you found your stay comfortable and the team welcoming. As for the bed, it's a Vi-Spring. They are fantastic! Many thanks for posting your comments. More
