We had such a lovely stay! The cottage was really comfortable and cosy.

The host provided so many great recommendations, we only wished we could have stayed longer!

Great that the cottage is also dog friendly.

Everything about this property was accommodating, from a couples perspective, to a toddler , even with the dog.
Had the weather been awful I’m not sure what we would have done. The games room a treat, along with the kitchen having all essentials needed to cook and clean. Just a joy to stay here, calming & relaxing.
Thank you to the Louise, Chubby the horse , and Henry .

Wow... where do I begin.. from the outstanding grounds to the hamper upon arrival with fresh eggs and brownies. To the immaculate cleanliness, the architecture of the barn... the bed sheets, the horses, the swimming pool, and the home grown apple juice.
I just cannot praise this place enough 10/10 - not one thing I would change about the experience. Thank you so much for making this weekend so special. We will be returning regularly and I will tell everyone I know about this magical place.

David and Louise were unbelievable hosts - they kept the pool open for us, and David was cleaning the leaves from it, for over 2 hours the morning we wished to use it. The pool and tennis courts are outstanding. The nature that surrounds the grounds is beyond magical - seeing dragonflies and wild bunny rabbits.

The games room was a child/adults playground! Log fire...smart TV for movies and music, darts, ping pong table, so many games machines and so much space to play!! You could never be bored here - I wish we could have stayed the whole week!!

Every little thing that could be done to make this stay perfect, was done by David and Louise. This weekend will stay with me forever - it was truly that special.

Thanks again - and if you are considering staying here - You will not regret it!!!!!!!!!!

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.

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!

I'm pleased to hear you all enjoyed a peaceful stay. The kids made great use of our games room and pool. Hopefully we will welcome you back to stay again soon.

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.



Rebecca, Hoppickers Team replied 306 days ago
Hi Scott, Thank you so much for your kind review. We really enjoyed having you stay with us for 2 weeks and I'm so glad you made good use of our swimming pool during the heatwave. We hope we can welcome you and your family back to stay with us again in the future.

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.

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!

As soon as we entered the country lane down to towards the entrance of the retreat we felt detached away from our normal busy city lives. We came to celebrate a family birthday and our location and it's amenities were exactly what we needed for time out. The barn we stayed in was large enough to accommodate all five of us comfortably. The living space was cosy and warm, the large windows brought in lots of light during the day and the kitchen had all the items you needed. It was home from home really and we were greeted with a welcome basket full of goodies which added a lovely touch.
The bedrooms were spacious, airy and clean. The bathroom/shower was great with a lovely skylight window that made you feel like you were outdoors.
Outside the building it's green and luscious, there's a pond, a pony, a horse, chickens and hens.
The games room an outbuilding is a great place to hang out, it's a den full of games and activities. Put it this way you will not get bored, there's lots to keep you entertained. I'm thinking of bringing my own children back for another visit soon.
Malvern Hills isn't far to drive to and Worcester City is within twenty minutes reach by car. I learnt in Worcester they have Wubers not Ubers! We were also fortunate to get to the farmers market on the way home, literally a few minutes away in the car and had a lovely morning mooching about and supporting local businesses before we headed back.
Louise and her husband were both very warm, welcoming and hospitable. Thank you both for your hospitality, and the opportunity to stay in your wonderful space.

We stayed at Hop Pickers Barn during the Easter break in the hope of finding some rural relaxation. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay. The Barn is beautiful, furnished to a high standard, incredibly well euipped and the decor is warm and relaxing. It was a real home from home, full of thoughtful personal touches. Hop Pickers itself offered so much to our little family of 4 and the dog, making us all feel welcome. We all thoroughly enjoyed the retro games room, the fields and woods and just as importantly the location, everwhere was lush and green and was a true treat for the soul. Louise and David have gone to a lot of effort in ensuring that everything is well thought out and that all needs are catered for in their information and local guides. We would love to stay here again and I'm sure we will be back, hopefully at a time when the weather is warmer and the pool is open.
Huge thanks to Louise and David for making our stay so thoroughly relaxing.

My husband and I along with our adult son, daughter in law and Grandson stayed in the barn .
My daughter & her partner in the hideaway.
We wanted to get away as a family unit for some much need rest & relaxation.
The Barn was comfortable & well equipped for our needs .
My Grandson soon discovered the Games room and had as much fun as the adults. He loved Chubby the horse too.
My son discovered new found tennis skills using the courts and it was fun to play as a family.
My daughter loved the cosiness ot the Shepherds hut & the hot tub was a welcome addition to relax after a long walk to the beacon in Great Malvern.and for unwinding in the evening
Hop pickers is set on beautiful land in a peaceful setting and we all agreed it was a great find .
Thank you ,we would fully recommend.

Had a wonderful time at the Hop Pickers Barn. We were welcomed with a basket of fresh produce and Louise couldn't have been more accommodating, she was an excellent host. The barn was full of character with its beams, and had all the comforts needed to make the stay home from home. The games room was a definite hit with the boys, keeping them amused for hours. The surrounding area was great for walking, the Malvern hills were a 6 mile walk (takes over 2 hours). We were also able to use the Shepherds hut hot tub as it wasn't booked, a very welcome bonus! Thanks to all at Hop Pickers, Lucy and Tim

This place has everything you need for a comfortable stay in Worcestershire.

The bed was great for good nights sleep (quite rare in these sorts of places) and pretty much every other detail had been thought of. You can tell that they have been doing this for a long time and they know what they are doing.

Just spent a lovely October half term with the family at the hop pickers barn. The cottage is delightful and cosy, well proportioned and stocked with a host of indoor and outdoor entertainments so much so you never need to leave the grounds. My son loved and games room with ping pong, pinball, racing track and much more, feeding and grooming the horses was a first for him also. The welcome hamper came in handy with fresh farm eggs for breakfast, however the local butchers was amazing and after just one visit we were dining like kings and queens on fab local rib of beef and home made sausages.
The local area has a wide variety of activities and places of interest including Elgar's birth place just down the road and Worchester with its beautiful Cathedral and river on the door step. The Malvern hills being a walkers paradise and an area of outstanding beauty which is a must to visit and stretch your legs a bit..
All in all great place to visit and if you want a cosy place to stay with all the entertainment to keep the kids happy the Hop Pickers Barn provides all.
Many thanks to Louise and family
Andy .

Set in beautiful countryside near Malvern, Hoppickers is ideal for family groups particularly if you book the Cabin and Barn together. The properties are great but so are the swimming pool and games room. Unusually for outdoor pools, the pool is heated to a comfortable temperature around 25 degrees and we liked having exclusive swimming slots. Each day we looked at the times available and it was easy to plan around them.
The horses and hens were fun to watch. Both Cabin and Barn are well equipped and each has a bbq.
We enjoyed the peaceful nights and seeing the stars without the usual light pollution we get near cities.
The shepherd's hut and Luxury tent would be good for couples and the properties are all positioned away from each other so there is privacy.

What a beautiful barn with gorgeous scenery. The barn is very well kitted out with everything you need for a self catering stay. The on-site swimming pool (great rota system), games room and tennis court kept the teenagers amused and the dog loved the freedom of the local countryside walks. Louise and family were very helpful and accommodating. Twenty minute drive to the Great Malvern/ Malvern Hills for plenty more walks and fabulous views. We had a very enjoyable and peaceful week at Hoppickers Barn. Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay at The Barn at Hop Pickers. The whole farm was beautiful and with perfect weather, we spent many hours on the tennis court and in the pool. The cowshed also provided excellent entertainment but does leave on wishing for a games room at home. The Barn was luxuriously kitted out and we really couldn't have wanted for anything. We will definitely be back again.

Our party was 4 adults (parents and kids - late teens/early 20s) and 1 dog. All of us loved it!

Host was excellent - we had an unexpected welcome pack for us and also a selection of treats/doggy stuff for the pooch.

Admittedly we were lucky with the weather, nevertheless the location was fabulous - very peaceful but only a short drive to Worcester etc...

Facilities were good too - pool and games room were frequented daily and enjoyed walking the dog around the estate.

Very relaxing stay and would definitely recommend/like to go back

My husband and I had a couple of lovely dinners outside in the little garden courtyard outside the entrance to Barn. The Barn itself is so homely and comfortable. We have already rebooked for next year, highly recommended.

Comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen, Netflix etc on the TV, games barn with table tennis, bar billiards, wii and unlimited use of a tennis court. All of us, including 2 teenage sons were perfectly catered for. Friendly and super accommodating hosts. Would definitely return.

The Barn is in a beautiful rural location and a great base from which to explore Worcester and Malvern. Louise and David provided a warm welcome and shared ideas for local walks. The Barn itself is spacious and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen that has everything that you need to self cater. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Lovely cottage, not as big as i thought, sofa very old and uncomfy, very musty smell, and not a good location in winter months. Im sure its fab in summer, but not in winter, would not call it a premier cottage. Not value for money



Louise replied more than 1 year ago
I am sorry to read your unfavourable review and the fact that the Coronavirus pandemic limited you having your friends and family to stay. The Barn had been closed for the month of November due to lockdown 2 which may have caused the sofa to smell musty but I will take that onboard and I am currently looking at a new replacement sofa which I hope will enhance the large open plan living/dining/kitchen upstairs. During the winter months with the central heating and additional electric fires we have not had a problem with it being cosy before and the Games room is a useful addition with its large log burner. We hope you get back to the USA safely during these difficult times.

A nice quiet location. Pool was great, comfy beds and cozy vibe in the barn - everyone slept well. Sofa probably could do with replacing as springs are gone and the WiFi was up and down most days we were there. However efforts were made to reset it when we reported this.
Lovely animals onsite and peaceful surroundings.

We had a wonderfully relaxing week at Hoppickers Barn with our family of four. We were so lucky with the hot weather; daily swims in the pool; tennis; table tennis and some barbecues. We enjoyed the woodland walk with badger hide and nature all around. Horses, chickens, ducks etc. The barn was well equipped and comfortable in peaceful surroundings. Lots of interesting places locally to visit and farm shops with local produce were excellent. Highly recommended!

As a family of 9 with 2 dogs, various ages and interests, from teen to 70. Each and every one of us would like to thank Louise at Hoppickers for such a wonderful 2 days.
We were welcomed straight away, we had the necessities for breakfast which were delightful, their own free range eggs, marmalade, bread, tea, coffee milk and so many other delightful extras, too many to mention. The most beautiful setting, extremely cozy, immaculately kept. The games room was just fabulous. This was the best weekend we could have even dreamt of. We also took the Severn Valley Rail and also Croome House. We will definitely be going back as 2 days was not enough. Thankfully it did not rain! We cannot recommend Hoppickers enough and cannot thank them enough for making it a very special weekend for our family.

We wanted somewhere that would accomodate 4 adults and 2 spaniels, close to Worcester and the Malvern Hills, with a countryside feel, which we could retreat back to and re-charge. The Barn at Hoppickers fitted the bill, ticked every box, and gave more. Certainly "in the sticks" but easily reached via proper road, not only more than ample, extremely comfortable living and sleeping space, the extra detail was especially appreciated. We arrived to find not just to tea, coffee and milk ready for us, also a loaf of bread (choice of brown white) butter and 6 free range eggs, from the chickens that roam the yard, plus 2 x welcome packs for the dogs, blankets, water bowls and treats. We were warmly received and this warmth carried over the 4 days of our stay, we always felt "at home" which added to our experience - excellent



An all-too brief stay

Unfortunately, we were in car accident on the day of arrival. We were only able to stay for 2 nights while we dealt with the fall-out from the accident. We were very frustrated at having to leave such an appealing and comfortable cottage in these circumstances. It is highly recommended.

Very comfortable; highly recommended for short breaks in an under-appreciated part of UK. Very peaceful and relaxing. Bear and Ragged Staff and The Boathouse great places nearby for eating. Go Gourmet and Post Office great for pies etc.

Enjoyed some family time together. Plenty of room for the rest of family to use the barn as well. Well equipped kitchen comfortable beds.. Enjoyed seeing the horses and chickens. Had a BBQ. Bit small but managed well. Would have liked better table and seating with parasol. Area wasn’t private but we didn’t mind. Had fun on the tennis court. Too rainy and cold for the pool. Owners on hand for any queries. Went to Great Malvern. It wasn’t far in the car.

I stayed with a group of friends in the barn and cabin over the weekend for a friend's wedding. Both properties were lovely and Louise was incredibly helpful and accommodating to our needs, we would definitely recommend Hop Pickers.

Super hosts; Louise & David (and daughters) could not have been more helpful and friendly to us; the barn was a perfect place to stay short-term with a family of 4, plus 2 dogs. The pool was warm, the games room entertaining and the kitchen had everything you need to self-cater. Beds very comfortable too! The setting was glorious, with dog walks available from the door. Highly recommended.



We Love Hoppickers!

We (parents, 3 kids age 11, 11, and 15) loved our stay at Hoppickers Barn. Louise and David are wonderful people, responsive to any questions or issues (very minor, in our case, like lightbulbs burned out), and with excellent suggestions on hikes, walks, pubs, restaurants, shopping, etc. The accommodations are comfortable and well-equipped, and suited us very well. We very much enjoyed meeting the horses, Storm and Chubby, the ducks, chickens, et al., though we did find the cat, Dillon, just a bit standoffish! The kids loved having access to the pool and tennis court. Quiet, rural, dark at night (great for use of the available telescope), but accessible to lots of good things to do in Worcestershire and Herefordshire, we suspect this is an area not so well known to Americans like us. We highly recommend Hoppickers Barn (there are also two other small houses for rent on the property) as a somewhat off-the-beaten-path sort of place. We had originally hoped to find a place in the Cotswolds, which are not far away, but could not have been happier with our choice. By the way, if you do stay there, ask David to tell you about his car restorations and other pursuits, and, if you're into horses, Louise will no doubt be happy to share information on her life in competition riding. Absolutely highly recommended!!

Thank you so much for your detailed review, it is very much appreciated. It was a pleasure having you and your family to stay and we are only sorry that we did not join you when you were using the telescope, the weather and clear dark skies were perfect during your stay.

Gorgeous place to get away!

Hoppickers Barn is a gorgeous, relaxing two bedroom property which sleeps five, set in beautiful tranquil surroundings near the Maulvern hills in Worcestershire. The Barn is situated next to a large games room, which has a wealth of interesting games to keep all ages entertained and a great room to spend some family time. Set in the grounds is also the added luxury of a heated swimming pool and tennis court. During our stay Hoppickers Barn felt like a home away from home. The owners Louise and David are lovely friendly people who really went out of their way to make us feel welcomed during our stay.

Hoppickers Barn... a great place to stay, tranquil and relaxing and great hospitality.
A bid thank you!

This was our 3rd trip to the Barn and it was as lovely as always. The setting was beautiful and on Sunday we did an hour walk around the Barn through fields of wheat, wild garlic and dandelions. We went for the RHS Spring Show at 3 Counties Show Ground and the Barn was perfectly situated. Our 2 year old loved the chickens, horses and especially the large trampoline. Can’t wait to go back.

We chose Hop pickers Barn as an ideal location for our family meet up travelling from Scotland and South of England. It was very suitable for us and the Games Room was fantastic and great extra space in the evening. I would certainly recommend it.

Lovely property in quiet rural location. Very helpful owners. Great facilities including tennis court, games room with darts board and ping pong table. It was a nice treat to have a welcome pack with bread, milk, tea and coffee and some handy household essentials like tea towel and washing up liquid provided.

If you want quintessential England, hidden away from the stresses of life - this is it. Idyllic setting, fabulous facilities - pool, tennis courts & gardens are fabulous, especially if you have dogs & little ones. Can walk for miles around without bumping into a soul or a road - bliss. Plus the Malvern Hills are on your doorstep.
Barn had everything we needed - simple but well equipped. We were all very comfortable.
My 3 little ones had a ball & that is a marker of the place for me - so we have booked again to return & are very excited.
Thank you Louise & David for opening up your magic little corner of England for others to enjoy.

We truly enjoyed are stay at the Barn. It was everything we expected and a bit more. The games room was an absolute hit with our teenage daughters and we all loved relaxing by the pool in the evenings. Louise and her girls were fabulous hosts and made us feel very welcome. Although the location was a bit difficult for us to find the first time, once we new the route it was very easy. The place is superbly located between Malvern and Worcester and we really enjoyed visiting the local pubs. Our favorite by far was the Live and Let Live (circa 1600) with its thatch roof and outdoor garden with a view to the Malvern hills.

We had a super relaxing time at Hoppickers Barn. This is our second visit and we were not disappointed. The children loved this place ,especially because there were horses, chickens, dogs and a cat within the grounds. The owners are lovely and helpful. We love the Malvern Hills! Peaceful, picturesque and a perfect rural retreat.
