Our Story

You will find Worcestershire in the Heart of England, part of the Cotswolds and framed with undulating hills and iconic scenery carved by the river Severn as well as the river Teme, Avon and many more. The Malvern Hills rise out of the valley and from the summit on a good day you can see up to 13 counties.

Worcestershire is more than the sauce, it has many tales to tell full of rich and varied history. The Iron Age Hill Forts, the arrival of a Viking ship and as one of England's busiest inland ports. By 1660 Worcester was the 12th largest city in England despite the effects of being the location of the first and last Battle of the English Civil Wars, discover the story of the Civil Wars at The Commandery. Today Worcestershire has layers of history that are waiting to be uncovered, from the Royal Worcester Porcelain to the Needle making supplying the world and Worcesters Glove making history. The Vale of Evesham is brimming with Fruits and Vegetables, blossom trees, plums and Asparagus highlight the calendar year making the towns and villages a colourful delight to visit.

Historic houses can be found in every corner of the county adding to the grandeur as you explore Worcestershire. With over 6000 Grade I and Grade II listed buildings including ones you can visit such as Harvington Hall with its priest holes, Witley Court with is amazing fountain and Hanbury Hall with it’s stunning staircase painting.

Invoking a relaxing and cultural feel, Worcestershire is a very inspiring county, the Birthplace of Sir Edward Elgar, home to Morgan Motors, Abbey’s, Churches and Theological Collages as well as Worcester Cathedral add to the feeling of finding time to breathe again away from a hectic city life.
