    “We have stopped at Stubb Oak previously and will be returning next June.”

    It is a wonderful area with stunning views and plenty of walks. Although we had a very wet week, it is a very relaxing stay and has all the amenities you could need. We're looking forward to returning in the summer and feeding the badgers in the evenings, hopefully a bit drier!!

The property

Perched in the village of Colwall in Worcestershire, is this large, three-bedroom bungalow, Stubb Oak.

Boasting a fantastic location within the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, large, enclosed gardens with adjoining fields and woodland and a contemporary interior, Stubb Oak makes for a wonderful pet-friendly dwelling for a group or family of six, plus their two canine companions who are looking to explore this beautiful area.

Park up on the driveaway with ample off-road parking available, before unloading your bags and taking in your peaceful surroundings.

Step into the property, where you will come into a handy utility room which houses a washing machine and tumble dryer, ideal for keeping your holiday wardrobe fresh!

Be welcomed into the sitting room, where you can look forward to family movie nights in front of the TV with Freeview and Blu Ray DVD player, as you snuggle up in the warmth of the electric woodburning stove.

When you start to feel peckish, make your way into the open-plan kitchen, where you can rustle up culinary delights with the help of the electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, along with a handy dishwasher for fuss-free clean-ups!

Settle down at the dining table for six to tuck-in to a delicious meal, or if the weather is nice, why not take advantage and dine alfresco out in the large, enclosed garden where your four-legged friend can stretch their legs.

When the evening cools, retreat inside to the additional sitting room where you can also enjoy your favourite shows on the TV with Freeview.

When sleep calls, retire to one of three well-presented bedrooms, a king-size, a double and a twin, each with plenty of storage for your belongings.

Wake-up tired eyes with a refreshing shower or indulgent soak in the bath, before savouring your morning coffee out in the enclosed garden, followed by a walk in the woodland.

Explore the local village where you will find the welcoming Colwall Park Hotel, Bar & Restaurant, where you can treat your loved ones to an evening out and yourself to a night off from the kitchen, along with a well-stocked convenience store where you can pick-up your favourite ingredients to cook in the comfort of Stubb Oak.

If you’re looking for a leisurely stroll, Colwall offers a good selection of beautiful gardens, including the Lugg’s Mill Orchard and the Colwall Village Garden, as well as the Charlie Ballard Nature Reserve where you can explore and spot the local wildlife.

For the keen anglers in your party, there is the nearby The Fishponds, which offers well-stocked fishing ponds and an idyllic spot for finding your catch of the day.

If fishing isn’t your thing, why not test out your clubs at one of the oldest golf courses in the country?

Walkers will have found their haven with the Malvern Hills, which offers scenic walking trails through hills and woodlands and some of the best views in the area!

For a taste of city life, head over to Worcester, where you will find the superb National Trust sites of The Firs: Elgar’s Birthplace and Greyfriars House and Garden, as well as a excellent selection of museums, including The Commandery, which houses civil war exhibits in a medieval building.

For an unforgettable stay in Worcestershire, choose Stubb Oak.

About the location

COLWALL, HEREFORDSHIRE

Worcester 11.9 miles; Hereford 18.9 miles

The large village of Colwall nestles within the westerly folds of the Malvern Hills AONB, bordering Worcestershire and split into three areas known as Colwall Stone, Colwall Green and Upper Colwall. One of the main features of this delightful village is the view of British Camp, which is an Iron Age hill fort positioned at the top of Herefordshire Beacon, a protected, ancient monument maintained by the Malvern Hills Conservators. Colwall Stone boasts a series of local shops, a specialist garden centre and village hall, while all three areas of the village are littered with public houses for you to enjoy a refreshing pint after a long walk over the hills. The many other outdoor activities available nearby include cycling, horse riding and fishing, not to mention hang gliding and paragliding for those seeking a thrill, as well as rock climbing locations in the area. The spa town of Malvern is nearby and offers a charming shopping location with its beautiful, hillside setting and a lovely mix of food, fashion and furniture stores. There are also a selection of pubs and eateries to choose from and a number of National Trust properties, gardens and vineyards within easy reach. Malvern Theatres has an extensive programme throughout the year with productions from the West End and the Royal Shakespeare Company, including musicals and dance, to world-renowned musicians and orchestra. Worcester and Hereford are within easy driving distance with many more attractions to enjoy, as are Tewkesbury and the Wye Valley, offering something for everyone. Choose this superb holiday destination at any time of the year!
