    Originally centred around an 11th-century Benedictine priory, Great Malvern grew to prominence as part of the spa town of Malvern. The Georgians had a penchant for taking to the waters and the region’s popularity increased during Victorian times, when Doctors Gully and Watson introduced hydrotherapy.



    It became a cultural centre in the 20th century, with Edward Elgar and George Bernard Shaw bringing music and theatre festivals to the town. Its long-established hospitality venues today benefit from this heritage and from the beauty of the surrounding countryside. The modern-day town is full of independent shops and cafes, perfect for a mooch. From the train station, there are direct trains to Birmingham New Street, Bristol Temple Meads and London Paddington.



    The Malvern Hills are a delight to explore. They are easily one of England’s most scenic upland regions, certainly the finest in the Midlands. Worcestershire Beacon, at 1,394 feet (425 m), is the highest point in the county and, along with neighbouring North Hill, dominates the west of the town.
