There are so many routes for walking these hills We walked over the top of the hills in a variety of different routes, there is also a circular walk, you need to wear decent footwear and plan for changes in weather Great exercise for the minimal cost of the car park £4.50 a day

You need to look up the History of the Whole Malvern Hills around 13 Miles long, once at the Top you have Lovely Views All around you, people travel from World Wide to see them. If you bring Dogs please make sure they are under Control as Cattle and Sheep are on some parts and have been attacked, Well Worth a Visit for All, Disabled could be an issue though.

Wow ! This was possibly the best of the 18 walks of our holiday. Of course the weather plays its part and this was the hottest and sunniest October day for years. The views from the top of British Camp (AKA Herefordshire Beacon) are some of the best you'll ever see in England and the space up the top is enormous, so even if you're sharing it with about 300 secondary school students (which we were) you'll still find plenty of room for a peaceful moment or two to lie down and admire the vista. Holly Terrier thoroughly enjoyed this walk and recommends it to all canine travelers. The arrowed path up is steep in places but perfectly do-able by most able bodied walkers. If you are a little older/unfitter/fatter (like me) I'd advise going to lower route going up (longer, not so steep, plenty of benches) and then taking the steep/shorter route on the way back down. Either way it's a magnificent walk, historic, scenic, beautiful...plus convenient parking, toilets and cafe at bottom (parking ticket gets you parking in any Malvern Hills car park for rest of day so hang on to it). Could only possibly be enhanced by a little information about any archaeology done thereabouts, life of the Iron Age peoples there, etc. Otherwise get on and enjoy it !

we visited just after the Government lifted restrictions for museums and historical places ,operating an one way system and hand sanitizers in place. we went on a hot day and the walk through the wooded area was lovely and cool with some benches available to seat on which was nice. A must see is the fountain which turns on every hour absolutely fantastic sight , the ruins was also great it must had been a wonderful sight in it's days. Also a great area for a picnic if you fancy a nice cup of tea and cake then take a visit to the cafe.

A beautiful 27 hectare nature reserve of orchard, meadow and woodland nestled in the valley of the Leigh Brook.
Reviewed By Jackdog1947 - Macclesfield, United Kingdom
We visited whilst on holiday nearby. The Reserve is in a beautiful, peaceful location, due to this parking is a bit limited but we did visit during the school holidays. The trails are well marked with items of interest. In addition paths led off to various other locations. During our visit quite a number of volunteers were at work on various project. A previous visitor had remarked about school children "stomping around in wellies" WELL good for them and full marks to their teachers I say, there's plenty of room here for all to enjoy and great for children to learn whilst being outdoors. Very well worth a visit.

I have been here about 10 times now and each time, it has not failed to impress. The bars are well staffed for that pre-theatre drink but if I have to comment, the theatre's café/restaurant is too small for the venue - a lot of folks would love to eat here before the show but space prevents this. There are lots of places to eat near by however. The theatre is slap bang in the middle of town with lots of places to have a bite to eat and a drink before, during and after each show. Staff are very friendly and willing to help wherever they can and due to its size, every seat has a good view of the stage. They get a number of tour plays and pre-West End ones, live music is also catered for although they tend to have tribute bands rather than the real thing.

Real ice rink, laser quest arena, bar, amusements and arcades. Fun for all the family rain or shine!!
Reviewed By D4156QEcarolines
As a regular skater at Ice Quest have to say i love this place - the procedures implemented due to covid 19 are excellent and make u feel safe. The price is £10 including boot hire so reasonable - but thats it no parking on top. Rink is smaller than standard rinks but plenty big enough to practice and it is smooth. Drinks and refreshments are available and again reasonably priced. There is music and lights on the rink, and at weekends the in house coach Chris is on hand to assist both visitors and more experienced skaters taking lessons. If you get hooked theres the learn to skate lessons. Last year i had Chinese visitors and the boys loved laser quest. A family run business with friendly and knowledgeable staff love this place.

We had parked at the far side of town from the "Pepperpot" so only found the information office after we had explored many of the streets. With hindsight we wish we had gone there first and discovered all the information we needed to understand all the history of the town. The history of the church which once stood on that site is fascinating and the use of the old church tower as a base for visitor information is brilliant.
