a few of our favourite things...
Worcester is a beautiful Cathedral city with lots to see and do, and no. 12 is ideally located perfectly for looking around.
places to eat and shop
Next door to no. 12 is the Talbot pub which is great for a quick meal or drink. As you walk into the city you will pass lots of small independent restaurants, pubs and shops for you to pop into before reaching the pedestrianised city centre with the main high street stores.
A few of our favourite places to eat (but really there are too many to list):
- Ostlers at no.1 for seasonally sourced food
- Fuegos for great pizza
- The Olive Branch for Meditarranean food
- Ashleys for a mean curry
- The Burger Shop for the tastiest burgers
- Ounce Bar and Kitchen for amazing steaks
things to see and do
Within the city centre take a walk around the historic Cathedral, follow Worcester’s history through the ages at the Commandery or visit Worcester Porcelain Museum. There is also the National Trust property, Greyfriars as well as the Tudor House museum to visit.
For the sporty, there is the Worcester race course, Worcester county cricket ground, Worcester Warriors stadium and the River Severn is used for lots of canoeing.
You may want to go ten bin bowling, try your hand at snooker or have a go rock climbing – you will find all these within Worcester.
And if you fancy something really different why not try an Escape Room?
further afield
If you want to venture out from Worcester you may wish to take a walk up the Malvern hills, visit Broadway and it’s tower, take a look at the birthplace of Edward Elgar or just take a walk in the vast amounts of Worcestershire countryside. There are several National Trust properties nearby including Hanbury Hall and Croome estate and many more not too far away.
In less than an hour you can visit the interesting cities of Cheltenham, Stratford, Birmingham and enjoy the Cotswolds or Gloucester quays.
No. 12 is just 10 minutes walk from the train station so you can get wherever you would like to with ease.
