A wonderful gem

We had a wonderful time at Hop Pickers Barn. The amenities are great; we especially enjoyed our own private hot tub and the games room. Great walks right from your door step and a wonderful hamper of local produce to welcome you. Highly recommended.

Perfect Spot for a Catch Up

We absolutely loved the barn - perfect for a long overdue catch-up with friends. We were met on arrival and showed round the barn, the hot-tub and the games room (which is amazing!). The only tiny niggle is that we were a bit cold as heating was on a timer and as soon as we contacted Louise about it she popped the booster on immediately - otherwise 5 stars all round. Welcome pack was lovely with plenty of home-made, home-grown and local essentials to start us off. Hot-tub was lovely and clean and warm - and retained it's heat well. Lots of local walking - can't believe we didn't make it to the games room until our last morning - it is worth a visit! Thank you!

excellent short stay

Spacious, clean and characterful barn conversion. Flexible arrival time was convenient. Everything worked well including wifi, TV and hot tub. The local farm products on arrival was most welcomed.

Family Gathering

As a family of 13 (age range 7 to 73) living in different parts of the UK we booked the entire site for a our get-together over a bank holiday weekend. The location was central to those arriving from the southwest, north, east and middle England. Louise was extremely helpful in helping me decide the sleeping arrangement months beforehand. The weather over our stay was inclement but with the heated swimming pool, hot tubs and games we had plenty to do. Rebecca was on hand to assist with anything on site during our stay. Everyone had a great time and we would thoroughly recommend this site to anyone looking for a venue for family gathering.

Lovely barn and location

Our second visit to this lovely barn in a beautiful setting. Very well equipped accommodation and excellent facilities on the site and we very much enjoyed making use of the hot tub, games room and tennis court. There are several walks from the property with useful instructions provided on how to access these. Good access to Malvern, Worcester and the Malvern hills. Highly recommended

Fabulous Christmas Retreat

Had the most amazing Christmas break with my little family and we couldn't have had a better place to do it. The hosts could not have done more for us from before we arrived until we left down to proving baby gates and a cot for our 2 year old. The location is stunning, loved seeing the horses and chickens in the morning especially. The barn was so so beautiful with stunning high ceilings and big windows it was perfect space for 3 adults and a little one. The barn is opposite the hosts house but it felt entirely secluded and we could roam around the games shed and enjoy the hot tub (looking out into the fields!) Very peacefully. The area was beautiful to drive around and we booked Christmas eve dinner at the Inn at Welland which had the best pub food I've ever tasted (a 25 min drive but SO worth it). Massive thanks for our hosts we'll certainly think about returning to enjoy the place in the summer!

Short family break

We decided on a short break to get away from the city. We were not disappointed the barn was clean and had everything to suit our needs. The property has beautiful grounds and amenities to the delight of the kids. Sure to recommend :)

AMAZING!

Such a wonderful stay here - ideal for what we wanted (a group of tired mum's looking for a relaxing weekend away). Facilities were clean, hot tub was amazing, beautiful views, comfy beds - we will be back!

One of the best facilities we have ever rented

This was a very well converted barn giving privacy when required and space for eating and chatting when needed. It was very well equipped and provided a good night sleep. The attached 6-8 seating Jacuzzi was very well used; it's ambiance was perfect and much used. The local area provided several interesting walks, both long and short depending on the fitness of the individuals. We also visited Brockhampton, about 4 miles away. This national property is well worth a visit

A beautiful, peaceful retreat

Rebecca was very helpful and attended to our needs. She let my children groom the ponies, help collect fresh eggs and we could pick blackberries and apples. The hot tub was definitely a hit for my family and it was immaculate. The views are stunning and there's plenty of space within, and around, the grounds for walks. Another bonus was the Cowshed, a collection of games for the whole family to get involved in, with a TV and selection of DVDs. The additional basket of treats we ordered in advance was perfect, lots to get us started for our cooked breakfasts. The barn includes everything you need in terms of kitchen equipment. Plenty of space to hang clothes, etc. By car, you can reach local towns within 20 minutes and there are plenty of local pubs to visit for great food and drinks.

Beautiful place!

We had a great welcome and a wonderful stay in the Barn which is comfortable and well equipped. We also really enjoyed having the use of the swimming pool, tennis court and games room, and the games room is the best equipped games room that we've come across. Nothing was too much trouble for our host. Highly recommend!

Fabulous holiday

We had a lovely week staying in the barn. It was fully equipped with everything we needed, a real home from home. All the lovely little extras on arrival were much appreciated. Rebecca was very warm and friendly. As a family with teenagers we all loved the pool, hot tub and games room with many competitive evening darts games! Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful hosts and lots to do on site

The barn was very comfortable and really well equipped, super shower, comfy beds and a nice welcome pack. The games room is excellent for kids and the use of the pool and tennis court is fun. Rebecca was a lovey host and generously spent time with the children, allowing them to collect eggs and groom the ponies.

Lovely place to stay!

What a wonderful peaceful place! We loved the Barn accommodation, very well laid out for us as 3 adults. The hot tub is a top quality one in a pretty covered decked area with a great view over the meadow horses & chickens. The host was very helpful & knowledgeable. Overall in a good situation half way between Malvern and Worcester with easy access to the wider area.

Stay at Hop Pickers Barn

Lovely cottage. Really comfortable beds. Welcoming hosts. Loved the welcome Hamper. Kids loved the horses- especially being allowed to groom them with Rebecca. Swimming pool an added bonus. Really enjoyed the walks directly from the cottage. Perfect location for visiting Great Malvern & the Malvern hills.

Amazing place in the countryside, highly recommended

We had an absolutely lovely stay at the Barn, which is very spacious, super cozy, and very quiet and relaxing. The whole farm is gorgeous, the hosts were super nice and welcoming, and we went on some beautiful hikes in the area. They also have a lovely vintage-style games room with table tennis, ping pong and pool that we enjoyed a lot. And there's even tennis and a pool. All in all a great place to stay. Don't give this one a miss if you're looking to relax in the countryside!

Lovely spot

Our family had a lovely stay in this peaceful part of the Malvern countryside. Well set up to entertain the kids or just have a relaxing stroll around the woods. Thanks so much for being so welcoming!

Two wonderful weeks at a restful spot, but with plenty to do round about

We didn't know the area at all, but the facilities onsite were enticing enough and proved to be excellent for us and our children with the games room, pool, tennis and walks from the door. It turned out that the area had plenty to offer too with a great mix of activities, eateries and places to visit. That included the Mappa Mundi at Hereford which has the supposed location of Heaven on it. For two weeks we found a little slice of it at Hop Pickers Barn.

Fantastic memories

Everything about the Barn was brilliant. It exceeded my expectations. The pool was the icing on the cake. Games room very well thought out. The owner’s so helpful before our visit & on our stay. Location great very relaxing. Accessible to many local amenities. I would highly recommend any of the accommodations offered at Hoppickers, I would certainly rebook in the future.

Perfect countryside retreat

Literally couldn’t get more of a countryside experience whilst still feeling like you’re in a luxurious holiday! Such a great little spot. Went as a family with three kids and we’ve all returned feeling so invigorated and zen! Comfortable, clean, well looked after, lots of lovely little touches. Would highly recommend!
