General
- Spectacular glamping accommodation on a nine-acre equestrian site
- A 20-minute drive to Worcester and 10 minutes' walk to a pony centre
- Heating, kitchen equipment, Freeview and outdoor seating
It's the accommodation that makes Ockeridge Rural Retreats so special, says the site's family team – a point of view you'll surely agree with as soon as you arrive. For the units here have been manufactured to the family's own design, to provide luxury accommodation at hotel standards: think central heating, customised kitchens, Freeview TVs, bed linen provided and smart bathrooms kitted out with towels...
Your luxury base is in Worcestershire, on a nine-acre equestrian site 20 minutes' drive from Worcester and down a peaceful lane with views over fields towards Little Witley. The Malvern Hills and the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are within easy reach of here; for city day trips, Worcester, Cheltenham, Stratford-upon-Avon and Birmingham are all 50 minutes to an hour away.
This is an excellent place for equine enthusiasts: horses and Shetland ponies trot around the surrounding paddocks, and a kids' pony centre is 10 minutes' walk down the lane. Guests are very welcome to watch the Ockeridge horses being shod, or being worked in the riding arena.
Country pubs serving food are within walking distance, but the glamping at Ockeridge has been fully set up for guests to cater for themselves on site. As well as kitchen areas, crockery and essential kit like kettles and toasters, each unit has indoor and outdoor seating for eats inside or alfresco.

Local attractions
Worcester, the Malvern Hills, stately homes, nature trails, walking, cycling... all are close by, along with famed attractions and days out like the West Midland Safari Park and the Severn Valley Railway each within 20 to 30 minutes. A short stroll will take you to a pony riding centre for kids' parties as well as events including all-day sessions, toddler sessions and woodland walks.
Worcester is about nine miles from the site, reachable in about half an hour by bus from the stop just over a mile away. It's well worth a wander for its famed cathedral, art gallery and half-timbered houses: take a guided tour from the 18th-century Worcester Guildhall to find out more.
Other options are Malvern and the Morgan Motor Car Company (30 minutes), spectacular Tewkesbury Abbey (35 minutes), and for kids, Top Barn Farm less than 10 minutes' drive from Ockeridge.

Hi Katy
Thank you for your review, I have to say we are a little disappointed by the 8/10 score as you marked us down for value for money yet we have reduced our prices by 25% this year to help people struggling with the cost of living so a little perplexed by this.
Regarding you not being able to watch any normal TV including BBC1 or ITV the TV has over 150 different program channels including BBC1 and ITV, I'm not sure why you were unable to discover these and would have been happy to show you had you raised this with us. We are very quick to respond to any problems that might occur as we live on site and we want guests to have the very best possible stay with us. In order to make sure no other guest has any confusion over the TV we have purchased a new Smart TV which is being fitted today.
Regarding your opinion on the bed not being very comfy and the bed leaving the back of your legs marked I'm not sure how to respond as we have always had good feedback about the comfort of the beds but I'm going to go with the old saying that the customer is always right so today we have closed the hut for the weekend and are removing the double bed and installing a brand new Kingsized bed with new bed frame. We would hope this will demonstrate to you and others reading this review that we want our customers to have the very best experience at Ockeridge Rural Retreats and would hope that you would return in the future based on the fact that you liked the "Beautiful surrounding and the hut was well equipped with a decent shower and and immense views"
