  • Adults-only dog-friendly site on the edge of the Malvern Hills
  • Eastnor Castle 10 minutes’ drive; Great Malvern and Ledbury 15 minutes
  • Dog park and walks from the door; nearest pub within a 10-minute walk
Harbouring dreams of exploring the spectacular landscape of the Malvern Hills as part of a romantic escapade with your significant other? Or perhaps you want to be well positioned to explore three counties (Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Gloucestershire) in one fell swoop? Then you might want to consider The Turbles as your base from which to do so. On the eastern edge of the Malvern Hills National Landscape, a five-minute drive (or a half-hour walk) from the village of Welland, this is an adults-only site. No children, then – which makes it blissfully peaceful; well-behaved four-legged friends, however, are welcome. Not only that: they have a designated exercise area for your canine pals to run about in, not to mention plenty of walks starting right at the gate. And while your dog bounds happily by your side, be sure to take in the views of your splendid rural surrounds. Your stroll might take you to the Golden Valley (a half-hour walk), where a pond has resident flocks of ducks and geese; or you might prefer to make a beeline for a local pub, which is 10 minutes' walk away. The pub is dog-friendly inside and out, and serves hot food according to its own schedule. Speaking of food, you’re welcome to start a barbecue at the site. For provisions, try the well-stocked village store in Welland, or head to Great Malvern, Ledbury (both 15 minutes’ drive) or Tewkesbury (20 minutes) for supermarkets and independent shops (plus, of course, restaurants and cafés). Unisex toilet and shower facilities complete the picture at this well-maintained Worcestershire site.

Fully-serviced grass touring pitch

Liked We stayed at The Turbles for a 1 night stop over on our way to Cornwall. Very spacious site, new toilets and showers, huge dog field, self check in, very peaceful with wonderful views and only a 10 min walk across the field to The Plume of Feathers pub. Food was delicious. Would definitely stay here again.

Fully-serviced grass touring pitch

Liked . Easy to find . Gated entry .Massive pitch .Clean facilities .Easy check in (whiteboard with name and pitch number on it) .Friendly owner .All pitches I believe had water and electric .Dog field was great, nice size .Adult only site .Wifi

Disliked The only things we didn't 'like' were just unfortunate timing for us. One of the toilets was out of action waiting for a part and the farmer next door was working in the field at approximately midnight (we assume due to the intense heat in the day) for an hour or so.

This wouldn't stop us returning. It was lovely.

Local attractions

If it feels like you’ve been at Eastnor Castle (10 minutes’ drive) before, it might be because you recognise it from its appearances in films and TV shows such as Succession. Dating from the early 1800s, this Georgian property has elegant rooms hung with tapestries and portraits, plus a deer park and a lake. The spa town of Great Malvern is anchored by Priory Park, a genteel area with a Victorian bandstand (come on a Sunday afternoon in summer for a free concert), a pond crossed by a wooden bridge and lots of picnic spaces. If you want to sample the local waters, take a (steep) hike to St Ann’s Well, on the eastern slope of the Malverns, just above the town. The gardens at National Trust – Croome (20 minutes) were Capability Brown’s first complete design. Take a stroll around admiring this 18th-century landscape gardener’s work, then head to the RAF Defford Museum to learn about the development of radar technology during World War II.
