"The Old Barn is very secluded, despite being in the grounds of the owner's house/garden - you are not overlooked at all. The owner was extremely helpful, friendly and down to earth. Views are stunning - cosy, warm and very spacious with everything you need...home from home."

"The property proved to be most comfortable, a real home from home. The owners were very welcoming, always on hand if we needed them without being intrusive. The location is perfect for anyone who wants some peace and quiet, but close enough to several attractions for a good day out. This cottage is a little gem and we are really looking forward to returning very soon."

"Perfect hideway, the cottage is very comfortable home from home, the owners Jill & John Price made us feel very welcome, always on hand should we needed them but in no way intrusive. The cottage is very well equipped, plenty of crockery, cutlery, pots, pans and towels. The kitchen is very well equipped with full size fridge and freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. We loved using the secluded garden which again was equipped to a very high standard. The location is perfect for anyone who needs peace and quiet, but close enough to several attractions for a really good day out. We particularly enjoyed our visits to Hanbury Hall (National Trust) and the West Midlands Safari Park, we visited twice! Bewdley village is typical plenty of pubs, eateries, a long cool drink sitting by the river on a sunny spring afternoon is a must."

"From the moment we arrived until the moment we left The Old Barn we could not have been happier.. Mr & Mrs Price were a delight as hosts, very warm and welcoming but most certainly not intrusive. The little extras provided go a long way to making your stay very special. I sort of loath to sing The Old Barn's praises too much as i fear it will become difficult for us to book this marvelous property in the future, it is a true hidden gem in Worcestershire. If you are lucky enough to stay in this lovely cottage you will not be disappointed. Only sorry we didn't stay for a week as our three night stay passed too quickly, how time flies when you're having fun and feel comfortable in your surroundings. Hope to return for a longer stay in the near future. Many thanks to the Price's for your hospitality and the privilege of staying in a top class cottage. Ian & Lorna. xx"
