  • 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 Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty? 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 AONB 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 showers, toilets and chemical disposal.

Liked: This is a fab site with great access to the Malvern Hills, walking or cycling. There are 2 pubs easily walkable, The Robin Hood and the Plume of Feathers. The pitches are spacious with good flat grass which appeared well draining. The stable activity was fun to observe. A very peaceful and quiet site. Catherine the owner, was extremely friendly and provided us with as much information as we asked for. Thank you

Disliked: This is not a dislike, but we see that it could be a problem if the site is busy! There is just one room which contains the toilet and shower together, so if someone is using it and you have no facilities yourself, it could be a problem in busier times

Liked: The view was superb, with the added bonus of horses opposite, and many sheep on the common just outside.

Disliked: Very noisy rooks in the early morning, but those wouldn't bother a lot of people

Liked: Peaceful, lovely scenery, good walks, lots of nature, cows roaming wild on the common. Campers shower and combined toilet is through the stables (not well signed) but this is very minor. Would definitely come back.

Liked: Beautiful location, walking distance to the Malvern Hills. We loved the fact that we could pitch up and not touch the car again until we were leaving. The first few days were very peacful and even though it is a farm, we were not disturbed at all. It was lovely to watch the horses in the field and listen to the birds, a real rustic retreat. Great weekend, lots of lovely walks even when the weather was bad, as depending on the route, there is lots of tree cover too. Overall lovely weekend.

Disliked: Very few downsides and they certainly would not put us off returning. It is worth saying that the toilet block is not actually a block, it is one room with a toilet, a shower and a sink. This was our first ever trip out with our first ever caravan and we would have benefitted from a short video showing the route in, as it was not what we were used to.

Liked: We really enjoyed the farm. The pitch was very flat and level and lovely soft grass. Very easy good instructions to find the farm and an email arrived with our pitch number ahead of time. We were very lucky as weather was sunny and warm making the whole weekend very successful. Toilet/shower was a little walk away but always clean and shower was good.

Disliked: Nothing.

Local attractions

Planning your hikes and wondering what views you might see? The Knapp And Papermill Nature Reserve (25 minutes’ drive) trail passes through an apple orchard, meadow and woodland. The Malvern ridge, accessible from the British Camp Hill Fort (10 minutes’ drive) is sublime too, with views for miles over farmland and woodlands. If you’re looking to switch things up, you might want to roll down to the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (25 minutes) for yet more wanders or watersports on the River Wye. For a peek into the past, try Little Malvern Priory (35 minutes) or Eastnor Castle (10 minutes). 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.
