  • Friendly adults-only site at the foot of the Malvern Hills
  • Access to Castlemorton Common and 35 minutes’ walk from Little Malvern
  • Barbecues permitted on site; walk to four country pubs
Keen to get away to the Malvern Hills? Looking for a break where your dog can get involved with the hill walking? A peaceful spot within walking distance of multiple cosy country pubs? Marlbrook Farm is here to get things started… The family-run, adults-only site based on a working horse livery yard is in the Malvern Hills National Landscape with direct access to Castlemorton Common and a 10-minute drive from the Three Counties Showground. Don your hiking boots and head for the common or the hills – the site is just 35 minutes’ walk from Little Malvern and under 10 minutes’ drive from British Camp Hill Fort. Those of you who’d rather mount your bicycle and get pedalling can set your sights on historic Ledbury (15 minutes’ drive or 45 minutes’ cycle) and the peaceful riverside in Upton upon Severn (25 minutes’ drive or cycle) too. Hill walking and cycling aside, those wishing to tip back a few local ales and indulge in some country pub grub will be pleased to find four such establishments within walking distance. The closest is just 15 minutes’ walk away and the remainder are 25 minutes’ walk or 35 minutes’ walk away – so judge your favourite for yourselves. If barbecues with stunning views are high on your priorities too, good news. They're permitted on site, and there’s a village shop 10 minutes’ walk away to simplify sourcing ingredients. Facilities on this peaceful independent site include one shower and two toilets located a short walk away from the pitches (passing by the horse stables) and a chemical disposal point.

What customers say

This tranquil site, nestled by the Malvern Hills, offers spacious, level pitches with EHU and water. Guests praise the peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, and direct access to walks. It's a working livery yard, with horses a highlight for many. Facilities are basic but functional, though some find the single shower/toilet block and its location through the stables inconvenient. WiFi can be patchy.

Poppy on-site touring caravan

Liked Lovely quiet & secluded location. Loved being able to watch the horses training. Liked that you could rent the touring caravan with it’s own facilities, hot water etc.
Loved that you are able to let yourself in and out. We had friends staying 10 mins away so we were in and out whenever we wanted.

Disliked The facilities are in need of a spruce up for sure. The first toilet I went in was really pretty grim, unsure if this was mainly for the stable staff or users, the second one around the corner was better but still not amazing. We opted to use the toilet and shower in the caravan instead for our stay. As far as I could see, there in only 1 shower, but I could be wrong as I didn't venture any further. The water pressure in the taps was horrendous, but the shower surprisingly good. We ended up washing our hands with the shower most of the time. Also had quite a few ants in the caravan.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Very peaceful site, pitches were spread well apart which gave us plenty of privacy.

Disliked There was only one shower and two toilets and they were desperately in need of an upgrade. They were also a long walk from the pitches through a farm yard. The washing up facilities were not very nice.

Liked This is a great site set amidst beautiful scenery. Very peaceful and the walks really are straight from the door. Lovely spacious pitches and very friendly host.

Disliked Dislike the fact that some people give a negative review about the facilities. You’re on a working farm, not a 5 star hotel. Get a life! We had absolutely no problems with it.

Local attractions

From the site, walk straight out onto Castlemorton Common. From there, it'll take you around an hour to walk to the top of the Malvern Hills without even crossing a road. On the edge of Welland, the site is also within walking distance of the annual Welland Steam & Country Rally event. There are many more festivals in Upton upon Severn (25 minutes’ drive) For a peek into the past, try Little Malvern Priory (35 minutes' walk) or Eastnor Castle (10 minutes' drive). The latter has a deer park, arboretum and a grand castle with turrets overlooking the lake. Gawp at the state rooms in the castle or try and work your way out of the garden maze. If you’re looking to switch things up, you might want to roll down to the Wye Valley National Landscape (25 minutes) for yet more wanders or watersports on the River Wye.
