Peace and tranquility with a welcoming pub nearby
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2011 NEW

The spacious accomodation was well designed and had everything we needed. The owner, Shirley, met us on arrival and showed us round the accomodation, answered our questions and told us about the local area. We enjoyed a week of peace and tranquility walking during the day and relaxing in front of the TV in the evening. The nearest pub, The Plume of Feathers just a 10 min walk away, was open all day and provided a warm welcome. (Take a torch for walking home after dark).


Comfortable accommodation

We stayed at The Turbles for two weeks in October and mainly used it as just a base for our house hunting in the Worcestershire area. We managed to relax in the evenings after a busy day. The apartment was well equipped and had everything we wanted so we would recommend it to friends. Shirley was on hand if we had any queries, and was very helpful.


A memorable holiday

A warm reception, friendly, nothing too much trouble.
Very quiet. The caravaners on site added to the location.


Perfect relaxation!

This tastefully furnished and spotlessly clean apartment is the perfect weekend or week-long getaway. The owner greeted us on arrival and was extremely friendly and helpful. She has thought of everything to make your stay warm and welcoming, including little touches that we weren't expecting - some games and books, and a whole room of puzzles as part of the apartment buildings. We stayed in apartment 3, which also caters for dogs and has its own secure garden. The 3 apartments are located in a beautiful spot, perfectly secluded and quiet, with a field behind with only a few caravan pitches at the far side, and behind that a field where you can walk the dog. To the left, a lovely view of hills. And close to a cosy country pub. Shirley the owner also sells fresh eggs from her hens -lovely! The apartment was pristine, warm, and modern, with a good shower and comfortable bed. The value is unbeatable (we kept extending our stay) and I really am already looking forward to going back sometime soon! If you want a quiet, comfy break and are looking for somewhere in easy driving distance of the Malverns, look no further!

This was a pleasurable experience even before we got there. Shirley was so accommodating and such a pleasure to deal with, we knew it was going to go well.

The location is amazing, quiet and beautiful and the apartment is fresh, modern, comfortable and really well equipped. It is well placed for all the touristy spots - what's not to like?


Perfect for singles on holiday or a family reunion

We booked the holiday accommodation because our son was getting married at Spetchley Gardens near Worcester. To our surprise, we were able to book other members of our family and friends at the same location as the site can accommodate caravans, with space for the odd tent.What a great place for a family reunion as we are spread over the country. The apartments are modern clean and well decorated with comfy beds, well equipt kitchens, matching crockery and and a fantastic double shower. All towels and linen provided were of good quality. The location was beautiful, just off Castlemorton common, and the hospitality shown by the manager was second to none. I truly cannot fault the accommodation or location. we intend to return to the area and use the facilities again in the future.


Lovely spot !

We chose the Turbles because it was dog friendly & it was - enclosed garden & a paddock for walkies which also led straight to Castlemorton common - perfect- also handy for the pub !!.The apartment was spotlessly clean & very well equipped inc bed linen ,towels at no extra cost.Lovely big shower - not one you bang your elbows on !Outdoor furniture for an aperitif in the sun.It is in a superb location very quiet.Shirley made us very welcome & was very kind. Definitely be back !!


A delightful stay in one of the most beautiful parts of the country
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 29, 2011

We have just returned from a very relaxing and peaceful stay at the Turbles Holiday apartments. We spent our week split between cycling around the local area discovering CastleMorton Common, and exploring the Malvern Hills and taking in the breathtaking views which are most definatley worth the walk up.

The apartment itself was just what we were looking for...cosy, clean and comfortable. Ontop of that it was in a beautiful rural setting, situated in a country lane. We had plenty of space to sit outside, so we could enjoy the sun, all the while with a view of the Hills in the background.

Being new to the area, we were thrilled Shirley was so welcoming. She went out of her way to ensure we had a good stay, advising on places to visit both on foot and by bike. An evening on MidSummer Hill with the view of Eastnor Castle in the background, watching the sun set, is definitely not one to miss.

Thank you very much Shirley, we are already looking forward to returning later in the year!

An excellent hidden away holiday spot, simply but comfortably furnished with all the equipment you are likely to need right to hand. Management were friendly and welcoming, but unobtrusive. A lovely place to be.

Brilliant location, comfortable and very accommodating
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 31, 2011

Very comfortable and well-equiped cottage/apartment in a rural location close to the many commons and hills of Malvern - if you like walking it's perfect! The manager accommodateed us at short notice, with no fuss, and made us very welcome including our dog. Will definitely stay again - it's not overpriced like so many places. Many, many positives, and the only minor suggestions were needing somewhere (hooks) to hang wet coats in the hall, a cafetiere in the kitchen and not having to lock and unlock the gate every time we went in and out! (although I realise perhaps this was a needed(?) security measure).
Thank you so much, Shirley!

A very relaxing break in peaceful and picturesque countryside. The apartment was comfortable and well-appointed throughout, managed by attentative and obliging owners, certainly a place we will revisit!


One of the best
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 4, 2011

We can higly recommend these appartments which are very well equipped, layout is very well though out and very clean. We were both made very welcome on arrival to this well managed quiet site with well kept grass area. Although it suited us the site is some way from Malvern and the local shop which meant that you had to use the car. Good local pubs in the area athough again a car journey was required. Good bus service from Castlemorton about 20 mins walk from site across the fields. We have already booked again for this year.


A very comfortable and relaxing holiday.

The accommodation was quiet, comfortable and well equipped. We found it an ideal location for visiting Tewkesbury, Upton and Ledbury, as well as the Malvern Hills.
We would definitely recommend it and will be returning ourselves this year.
