A little more information on Malvern

On the eastern side of the striking Malvern Hills, the lovely Worcestershire town of Malvern, which dates to the Bronze Age, is located. The Malvern Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, are a 9-mile-long range of old rock that has 100 miles of footpaths and bridleways, as well as natural springs and expansive vistas in all directions. The town has several auctions, farmers' markets, antiques fairs, WI country markets, antique shows, and the Great Malvern Food Festival in June. Malvern is home to unique stores, cafes, galleries, restaurants, a posh spa, and a small brewery. The Three Counties Showground, which often stages events including RHS Malvern (May), The Royal Three Counties Show (June), and the Malvern Autumn Show, is also close by (September). Motoring aficionados love this town since it is the birthplace of the Morgan automobile. The Malvern Theatre hosts performances from the Royal Shakespeare Company and the West End. High ropes, climbing, and abseiling are just a few of the outdoor sports available to the more adventurous. There are National Trust homes, gardens, and wineries in the vicinity, and fishing and river excursions are accessible nearby. Only 30 miles separate Worcester, a cathedral city with modern conveniences, and the magnificent Forest of Dean, which offers a variety of attractions.
