The Croft Reviews

Nicest place we have ever stayed and in, will definitely be returning
We all loved The Croft plenty of space, great views, Steve and Sally were very helpful and the cottage was very well equipped. The weather was mostly boiling hot so the hottub became a cooltub under a large umbrella. Our dog, Poppy, loved running around the vineyard paddock and the woods behind the pond. We also enjoyed getting iced coffee from the coffee trailer a converted horsebox which is over near the We Flourish garden centre FriSun only they were very friendly and had ice cream for dogs. Getting to Malvern is easy by road if needed but spending time in the quiet and lovely countryside is recommended.
Tracey
The Croft is a beautiful place to stay, so much so weve already booked for next year. The accommodation is as spacious as the photos suggest not always the case! and the grounds are truly amazing, with a beautiful lake and woodlands where we were able to walk our dog. Sally and Steve have done an exceptional job in creating such a relaxing, stunning environment, we cant recommend enough.
Russell
Absolutely beautiful property lovely and quiet everything you could ask for. The owners are really nice and really approachable we would definitely stay again
We found the Croft excellent and very clean and comfortable. For a one bedroom property it is very spacious and the grounds it was situated in were so amazing with plenty of fields,a private woodland to explore and a gorgeous lake to walk around and enjoy.The owners were very friendly and helpful.
Our third stay at The Croft and not our last. A lovely place to stay which we still highly recommend. Very high standards and very comfy surrounded by good walks, places to visit and good pubs. You can't ask for more although for the first time we've ever said this a bit cooler weather would have been easier!
Rachel
We are so pleased we found the Croft not only were the hosts friendly and nothing was too much trouble but to be able to use the lake and surroundings on site was an added bonus. Our spaniel loved the swimming thats for sure! The Croft is modern, spacious and very comfortable, and the spa hot tub watching the sun go down gave us the ultimate relaxing break. Ideally situated to explore the surrounding areas, with so much to see and do.
Patrick
Great property stunning views, hot tub very relaxing, lots of nice touches from the hosts such as your name on a welcome board. The fresh farm produce burgers, pork steaks etc. is lovely and should be tried. Finally, there's lots of nice things to do near the area.
Perfect in every way. We had an amazing stay and the hospitality shown by the owners was superb. The cottage is lovely and location stunning. We really hope to visit again.
Our second stay at the Croft and still fabulous. Perfect setting and location, very comfortable and everything you need plus a high quality hot tub. Highly recommended and we hope to book again.
Richard
The croft has everything you could wish forthe owners were considerate and very pleasant. The site was beautifully peaceful
Sharon
Stunning location and cottage on the working farm. Would definitely recommend this cottage to everyone. You are close to all the famous places to visit especially the Malvern hills which are worth the walk up the Hills to see the top and the wonderful scenery. Cottage very spacious and comfortable bed and finish of with a relaxing hot tub. We all had a great time thank you Sally and Steve for your hospitality and hope to visit you again. Sharon and Peter ball
Steve and Sally were very good hosts. The Croft was very comfortable and in a lovely setting. The kitchen was well equipped with everything being. provided for cooking meals. It was great to sit in the hot tub at night watching the stars.
Andrea
We have just spent an amazing 6 nights at The Croft. The owners, Sally and Steve are warm, welcoming and friendly and the fresh eggs, milk, bread, butter and cakes when we arrived were a lovely touch. The pictures dont do the place justice there were lots of WOWs when we first walked in! Despite most of the week being wet and miserable, we had an amazing and relaxing stay with lots of time in the hot tub. We also discovered a brilliant game in the well stocked games and book cupboard Sequence which my husband insisted we bought on the way home
Rosemary
Cottage was a dream and even better than it looked. Steve and Sally were great, friendly and welcoming . They were around if you needed anything but left us alone when we needed quiet. Their dogs were lovely and the two pigs were gorgeous . We had the run of the farm and could wander round at will. Could not fault it or them.
Christopher
Perfect location, perfect accommodation, perfect hospitality. Could not ask for any more for a relaxing holiday.
Damian
Absolutely stunning place. Couldnt of asked for a nicer place to enjoy are honeymoon sally and Steve very welcoming Cant wait to come back for are anniversary
We absolutely loved staying at the Croft. Others have said it but it's true the pictures don't do it justice. Gorgeous setting and the space for our dog was brilliant and much appreciated. Everything is of the highest quality at the Croft. Easily the best place we've stayed. Sally and Steve are lovely hosts and on hand but the Croft is still very private. Shop, pub and takeaway 5mins in car and no distance at all to Malvern. As soon as we have dates sorted, we'll be booking for next year but with less rain please!.
This is our second visit to the Croft, it was in our view better that the first, but nothing had changed within the Croft, my Wife is over the moon with the Croft the location and especially the Hot Tub! ! I feel exactly the same, Sally and Steve are incredibly genuine people, who are prepared to help with anything and everything, and at the same time they never intrude, we were fortunate to be there when the Farmers Market was taking place, highly recommended, little bits of everything. In honesty the pictures do not do the place justice, it really is a very very special place, long walks round the lake and through the woods, ideal if you have a Dog, also a separate field which is closed off so any Dog can run free, will we go back, try and stop us !!!!! If you stock up on food you really do not have to leave the Croft, as it is based for some really nice walks.
We recently had a very enjoyable and relaxing stay at The Croft. Steve and Sally, the hosts were particularly attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The Croft was very comfortable and well equipped, the hot tub was fantastic with a southerly aspect across the lake and fields with views towards the Malvern Hills. We would definitely recommend staying at The Croft
Antony
The perfect break! What a little gem of a property. Myself, my wife and our little dog stayed at The Croft to celebrate our 1st year wedding anniversary. The house is surrounded by areas of outstanding natural beauty which made great walks, with a welcome stop at a local pub for lunch. Malvern hills, wye valley and Cotswolds wildlife park and Zoo were just a few of the highlights. The house itself was absolutely outstanding. The level of care when we arrived shone through from little chocolates by the bed and milk in the fridge to an anniversary card. The owners live next door and are the kindest loveliest people you could ever wish to meet! They do not intrude on your holiday at all. The grounds surrounding the house are quite difficult to put into words a private forest, pondlake and wonderful farm animals. Our little dog was really in his element here and we were too! The hot tub was a welcome way to end the day. Highly recommend staying here! It is a great place to unwind. We also purchased some lovely meat from the owners farm which is absolutely delicious. Thank you Sally and Steve!
What a lovely home. The pictures dont do it justice. This is a luxury home with fantastic finishes. The location is great if you just want to chill walks round a private woodland for our little dog Poppy absolutely made her day. Sally and Steve are great hosts, so friendly and welcoming. Log burner is amazing, we were toasty all weekend. Will definitely return.
Rachel
We really can not describe how fantastic this property is, the pictures and description do not do it justice. The hosts are fantastic, we had a wonderful time here and would highly recommend. Very dog friendly. Would also highly recommend trying there produce as well.
Very comfortable and relaxing stay.
Amazing property, really spacious and finished to a high standard. Great location and lovely views, we loved walking our little Boston Terriers around the lake and in the woods to visit the pigs. Hot tub was huge and the bath robes provided were a great touch. Sally and Steve were very friendly and on hand if needed but left us to our own devices, perfect hosts. We had a great trip to the Malvern Hills and to Great Malvern not very far away and a lovely meal at The Fox Inn as recommended in the handy guide book. Highly recommend.
Amazing place to stay! Loved every minute of it, the owners were very accommodating! We would love to come back! Highly recommend!
For the first time we found a place that actually was as it said on the tin, but 10 times better ! !! believe me when we say the owners are very nice down to earth people that have tried their best to give you a relaxing place to really enjoy your holiday, everything you could wish for is to hand, and if by chance you do need more you only have to ask the owners, Sally and Steve, wonderful people, yes it is a working farm, but from where the accommodation is you would never know, you are right by a lake which can be fished, 60MTRS there are tree lined wooded walks, very good in the heat for our Dog Bella, and very very quiet. I believe we had the hottest week there of this year, my Wife spent most of the time in the Hot Tub, why not !!!!!!! Highly Recommended.
Charles
We booked this holiday after seeing the lovely photos online. The real thing is even better. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed fishing in the lake and managed to catch a 9lb Carp. This has been the best UK break weve had and would highly recommend it. Thank you very much to Sally and Steve for letting us share their magical setting. Charlie and Lorena
A wonderful stay in beautiful surroundings. The Croft was beyond our expectations and made a perfect holiday. The hot tub and lake for fishing made it even better. We would highly recommend this accommodation.
Yvonne
Excellent choice, well situated for exploring Malvern & surrounding walks. Fab property with lovely views, generous welcome treats, hot icing on the cake
What an amazing place to stay! Stunning cottage, stunning views and beautiful grounds to walk around. I can honestly say mys4lf and Lexi furbaby throughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again! All the little touch's on arrival were do welcoming. Thank you Sally and Steve x
On arrival after a long and tiring journey from Cornwall we were greeted by our hosts Steve and Sally who helped us settle in. They introduced us to their friendly and well behaved dogs whose company was an added bonus for us and our own dog. The stunning accommodation is beautifully furnished and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. But the hot tub just takes it to another level with uninterrupted views of the countryside and the silence broken only by birdsong and the lambs in the next field. We definitely will be returning.
The Croft is a lovely well maintened and beautiful furnished property, In the details it would be nice to,have stated the property is next door to the owner who has three dogs. Two alsations and a Jack Russell If we had been aware of this we would not have booked the propery
Pauline
We had a lovely stay, enjoyed walking in the woodlands and around the lake seeing the animals and chilling out. The Croft was comfortable, lovely to have a decent size wardrobe with lots of hangers and plenty of room. Hot tub was a bonus after a day of walking the wonderful Malvern Hills. Thank you.
We had a wonderful stay at The Croft, the decor was stunning and everything was such high quality. The hot tub was a real luxury and the scenery and tranquility was much appreciated. Sally and Steve the owners were always on hand to answer any queries and provide a lovely welcome pack of items.

A fabulous week away at The Croft, the cottage was of a very high standard with everything we could have needed. Such a peaceful location, the hot tub was lovely on a night. There are some beautiful walks a short drive away such as the Malvern Hills. Highly recommend!
Tamanie
Wow!!! What a place me Emma and our dog Jack loved the natural beauty on our doorstep. It was peaceful and the Hot Tub was fantastic. Close to the many hills in the Malverns and a nice log fire to sit and chill next to in the evening. it has everything you need and very clean and tidy. We will most definitely be back.
Eleanor
The Croft was our favourite British holiday, we loved the hot tub and the open fire! Thanks so much for a lovely time away from home, I'm sure we'll be back to visit soon!
